I'll post this here, a little analysis of a poem jerry wrote
(reproduced below from its revised form on twitter for those
who have yet to read it)
U / U /
1 The hobbit King
U / u /
2 Will suck your dick
U / U /
3 If on the fa v

6 king is me

U / U /
8 my piss will be
Jerry intentionally varies the meter on line 5. My personal preference would be
U / U /
but do not say
U / U /
the king is me
which preserves the iambic dimeter, but I also like the stylistic choice of changing the meter here emphasizing the implied threat to the reader while also setting up the ironic conclusion where it becomes obvious the writer is in fact the aforementioned "hobbit king".
