Little Willy
Willy had a sister, Rita.
Willy also had a cheetah
just in case his mom said, "Mister,
pucker up and kiss your sister!"

Harry Graham (apparently) is to be blamed for this nasty little "ruthless" form. "Little Willies" (again, apparently) may be found in several different meters and lengths, though the one I've chosen seems the best to me. And sometimes they're not even about Willy. That's actually kind of understandable.
