I joked that his next poem should be about me, and he made up a few corny, iambic lines about how much he liked me.

This is an iambic line in which each iambus is formed of two words.

Like common metre, it has stanzas of four iambic lines.

For example, Aeschylus and Euripides each composed the same iambic line.

Rhymed pairs of iambic pentameter lines form the heroic couplet.

Eights may refer to octosyllabic, usually iambic, lines of verse.

Heroic verse consists of the rhymed iambic line or heroic couplet.

The poems are cast in long, fairly regular iambic lines, and the level of diction has risen.

To do so, he shortened his line length to 3.5', or almost half a normal iambic pentameter line.

In prosody, this is an iambic line of six feet or twelve syllables.
