Battle Rap

Get ready for a challenge. Why? 'cause poetry and dares make me high! So—you think you’re the best? I bet you think “I’m a poet and didn’t know it” will pass my acid test. I gotta pause right here and yell— in your face—“L O L”! Gimme your best sonnet. I may slap a D-minus on it. Wait’ll you see mine. They’re smooth and oh-so-fine. Toss me a triolet. Think I’m gonna be wowed with your wit? I’ll go on and betcha mine’s gonna be bettah. Gimme your most rousing rondeau. I may be your worst foe, 'cause I already know yours won’t come close to mine. Think I’m verbose, don’tcha? Well, I gotta admit as in my rocker I sit writin’ this invite to a poetry duel, never thought I’d have the fuel to be so crass and cruel as to dis any fellow poet. Still, I CHALLENGE YOU. Don’t blow it! May 16, 2018, entered in Nick Trim's 8 Mile Style Rap Contest Placed 8th (of 10) April 8, 2019, entered in Anthony Slausin's Your Amphetamine Contest
