The Spoonbill Generator

Oftentimes Manet Tried Somersaulting Over Renoir

Lanky Hank was the tallest of Sherpas [Kansas Sam]

With a monocle and a bad hairpiece [Beefy]

He liked to punch yetis [Karin]

With conjunctivitis [Beefy]

But especially yetis with herpes [F]

The man who invented the mouse [Beefy]

Was extremely fond of his booze [Karin]

He'd stagger and weave [F]

While waving a sieve [Beefy]

Then offer some feeble excuse [Grayman]

Bad rhyming itself is an art [Beefy]

Hold your nose, grit your teeth - still it jars [Kansas Sam]

Each line must be lousy [Karin]

Each sentiment rosy [F]

Of poesy you've got not a shard [Karin]
