i dont believe in Walt Whitman... i think he bastardized what was once a skilled artform... sure he may not have been too bad but his ideas of free verse have been used in the 20th century by pretentious idiots to sound intelligent by being vague and not following the structures of rhyme meter.

**monolith94** · July 30, 2003, 02:08

Believe in him or not, you can't stop him from existing. Besides, free verse was the inexorable path of poetry, whitman or not.

You can be specific and decide to not follow rhyme structure at the same time, you know.

Curious as to what you thought of my effort.

Mono:

it's very rock-ish if you know what i mean? it seems like the lyrics to a rock song in content and in style. also the length is very rock-like... though if you did extend the length and put more specific things in there (kind of like a story in rhyme which is extremely common in rap), it would be more along the lines of most rap songs.

but how does shore rhyme with more and baltimore though? a mass. accent?

**David Floyd** · July 30, 2003, 02:17

Eh? "Shore" does indeed rhyme with both "more" and "Baltimore". Unless I pronounce them all incorrectly.

**Al B. Sure!** · July 30, 2003, 02:17

actually now that i think about it, the content is VERY common in rap... i can't even count how many hundreds of songs had that idea of talking about leaving all the bull**** in the world and just cruising on the highway... maybe you should try to download a song by Joe Budden (aka Average Joe as he is also known cause he's a very typical rapper. nothing special about him) called 10 Minutes (beware it's a huge 10 minute song so if you dont got cable internet dont bother) which is similiar except instead of driving to the shore, all he needs is 10 minutes to smoke a cigerette. in those ten minutes, he basically goes through every aspect of his life in story form. might be inspirational

"it seems like the lyrics to a rock song in content"
"the content is VERY common in rap"

How do they not rhyme???

**Al B. Sure!** · July 30, 2003, 02:21

your rhymes with shore...

**David Floyd** · July 30, 2003, 02:22

Not how I pronounce it

**Al B. Sure!** · July 30, 2003, 02:23

Mono:

outwardly, the style is rock-ish (though i'll admit that i know next to nothing about rock music) but on a slightly more in depth level, past the superficial rockness, the basic idea is very common in rap.

**Drake Tungsten** · July 30, 2003, 02:26

Maybe mono has crazy flow and can rhyme words that shouldn't, like Eminem. You ever think of that, Speer?

**monolith94** · July 30, 2003, 02:26

I think I deserve credit for creating the first ever rap lyric to use the word 'volvo'.

**Drake Tungsten** · July 30, 2003, 02:29

I think I deserve credit for creating the first ever rap lyric to use the word 'volvo'.

I'm sure it's been done before. If you would've used "vulva" instead, you might've had a chance. Not many proper anatomical terms in hip hop.

**Al B. Sure!** · July 30, 2003, 02:33

nah mono... i've heard volvo plenty of times...

**Drake Tungsten** · July 30, 2003, 02:33

You guys think I could post a rap about cunnilingus without getting banned? I have a killer line for the labia.
