Would this be an appropriate medium for Star Wars characters? For television talk show hosts? For bloggers? Indubitably. Here is a classic:
Sir Humphrey Davy
Abominated gravy.
He lived in the odium
Of having discovered sodium.
--Edmund Clerihew Bentley
Clerihew rules
1. biographical (first line is a name)
2. four lines long
3. uneven lines, mostly very short
4. AABB rhyming pattern

Le Petomaine
Was never profane.
But he reckoned a fart
Was art.

Edmund Clerihew Bentley
Should not be treated gently
For to him is due
The Clerihew.
(Ogden Nash?)
