The Doctor: Yeah? Well I'm the Lord of Time.

Reinette 58's version - Doctor Who Haiku
King of France? Big deal
My screwdriver is bigger
Lord of Time - beat that
Bananas are good
Come away with me, Reinette
Back soon, hold that thought
Girl in Fireplace calls
- Spatio-temporal hyperlink -
Through the magic door
Haiku is Japanese short poetic form of 17 syllables - 1st line 5 syllables, 2nd line 7 syllables, 3rd line 5 syllables.
Ok, ok, 'spatio-temporal hyperlink' a bit cheaty. 'Spay-show temp'ral' - poetic licence.
The 'screwdriver' bit was inspired by the Master's line at the end of Series 3 - 'Laser, who'd have sonic!!". David Tennant actually texted Executive Producer Russell T Davies on the morning of the shoot with the words 'his screwdriver is bigger than mine,' so if it's too rude, blame it on the lovely DT!!
