Synopsis

A clerihew is a whimsical four-line verse of the form AABB, the first line of which is the name of a famous person. By way of contrast, a Japanese haiku typically comprises three unrhymed lines with seventeen syllables (5,7,5) and evokes the natural world. This personal collection of clerihews and haikus—some daft, some bawdy—has as its exclusive focus the wondrous, whacky world of association football. It would make an ideal (and inexpensive) gift for aficionados of the ‘Beautiful Game.’
