Emcee Or Poet

I'm told this isn't hiphop, just a bunch of well constructed words And its not poetry either because it rhymes like a rap verse At first, come to terms with the terms that your using Then try to structure the point that your proving Introducing yourself half way through a statement Will likely fail, you need a basis for it to make sense if it's a story your trying to tell A true emcees pen is used to jot thoughts on paper But its just a matter of opinion which version's prefered or greater Words heard, are sure to stir emotions in some,but Read straight from the page that it wouldn't have done The reality is rap punchlines are something quite pivital But Rappers today make verses seem quite trivial In the last line I've given you, an example of the devide Repetition can enforce points, or be an easy way to rhyme These changes may be hard to define, but it's worth a try I don't use style guidelines, I adopt whatever works for mine Search my mind for my thoughts, and write 'em in rhyme form Lots have lost the plot . . just let me know when you find yours My verses get read so my message is spread they way it's intended to be Cause if your an emcee who isn't a poet,well your just posin, your not really an emcee .
