Invented by Brian Stand, a footle is a 2 line form, that is one stressed and one un-stressed syllable in monorhyme.  (they are supposed to be witty, but some of them of a darker nature)
Here are some examples, by him:   

Bonine & Clyde

too snide
both died


Acers

warm glow 
fall show.

And here are 2 shared by my friend Karen O'Leary (, where I 1st learned of this form: I see no copyright symbol by her column, so I am figuring this O.K. to share._

Blind Date

romance
by chance


Federal Budget

cost crunch
no lunch


And finally, here's one of my own:

Generosity

Let's dine,
My dime.

Have fun creating your own!
