Bad poetry (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

doggerel

'bad poetry' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for doggerel that I've seen before include "Bad verse - of canine beginnings?" , "Unpretentious verses" , "Nonsense verse" , "Trite verse" , "Terrible poetry" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Sun.
