Forty-Eight Bars An Ode To Hip Hop

First, give me your ear, while I make this clear, One bar, thus far, just put me on the clock, Rocking my verbal gear, on a new block This year, making my presence known right here. Yes, the moment that "rappers" feared is near, Ending shocks that they were sending their flocks, Intorducing them to the POET, Doc, Getting "jocked," like they were waiting to hear. Hip Hop will never stop expressing words! The top prospects are the cream of the crop, Beating the flops, that all get shot like birds, Arresting the cheats with their heat like cops. Right now, the best test his right to be heard; Sonnet style strong, until the next verse drops!

So you are the sonnet man? I will have to check out more of your sonnets later. I have written tons of sonnets but have only posted a few. If I had time I'd surely try out your challenge, but with the grandkids living in my house now and this job I have, etc. I can't do much of anything but comment and get offline! Nice meeting you, Dakari.

To all my new viewers from the world of rowdy rahz, this is officially my unofficial challenge to all lyracist, writers, rappers, etc. I want to know who has the originality and creativity to compete with The Sonnet Man. Don't sleep on the Acrostic/Italian Sonnet. I am looking for a good challenge. You can't get better if you don't challenge yourself. This challenge is only for serious contenders. Steel sharpens Steel, so don't get cut. Any style is welcome. Poetry Soup is free to join.
