    Rivals At War

    Rivals At War

    "O War! Begot In Pride And Luxury, The Child of Malice And Revengeful Hate; Thou Impious Good, And Good impiety, Thou Art The Foul Refiner Of A State Unjust Scourge Of Men's Iniquity, Sharp Easer Of Corruptions Desperate! Is There No Means But That A Sin-Sick Land Must Be Let Blood With Such A Boist'rous Hand?

    -Shakespeare

    ..Peasent Duration Tolerated..
    Pointless endeavors would teach, digest these cowards in sins
    More then a figure of speech, express our powers in pins
    Endures the ligaments breeched, fatigue devouring mins.
    Secured in imminent briefs, firing hours within

    ..Thy Kingdom Come....Down!..
    Drag tongues creates parts, fight for a purpose above
    Stab lungs ands and break hearts, like they were hurt'n from love
    Ragged, tons embraced dark, might they be curtainly shoved
    Flags hung, enraged mark, dispite the words to be rung

    ..Its Reason Enough...Isn't It?
    Live life for the ones born, their daughters and son's more
    Sentences comma the period, but sorta just runs on
    Each quarter, wants a debater, in order the sun's pours
    Heated battle, sharded flesh, deep tissue, and lungs torn

    ..Vision Spoken Through Sight..
    Bullets feast on da gums, blood leaks, N' gleets from the tongues
    Wives keep track of stats, 2 add'em up like eve would've done
    Clouds forshadow the reign, steam rises, only peace is a gun
    All the sense spent on revolution time weaved isn't spun

    ..Fights 4 Their Own Purpose...
    Both sides endless restrictions, forbidden, senseless discriptions
    More driven tending each mission, their given, vivid conflictions
    Who's winning, curse'n each person, diversions serve'n its purposes
    Inserted search'n the surface, reverted birth an emotion

    ...Before today we've fought, after yesterday we'll fight...

    ..and for days to come we'll survive...

    Where the fuck was I fore they found me?
    Floatn in a meadow, dragonflies all around me
    Seeded in a ghetto, smokin cigarellos
    Stress oceans try to drown me
    Walking on water like when Christ did, glidin
    Mic in my plam like the trident in the hand of Poseidon

    Hey, RTFing for you since you commented on my piece... I was pleasantly surprised by your use of flow on this, and thinking a little outside the box in that respect with the four line stanzas having the same rhymescheme for their duration... I thought this was well worded, and the Shakespeare quote at the beginning really drew me in to want to read this in any case... This is a solid job, nothing spectacular that made me saw, "Wow," it's not like war isn't talked about very often...

    But it was a nice read and you did a good job. I think next time you should really concentrate on trying to tell a more vivid story through a good rhyme, at times in this piece you lost me, but stick to it, this is good stuff.

    A.I.

    "She managed to extract from the restriction itself a further delicate thought, like good poets whom the tyranny of rhyme forces into the discovery of their finest lines."

    I was also pleasantly surpised, not just by the flow, but by everything that went into this peice, i really liked the rhyming but i would have liked slightly more, maybe making the story slightly longed or more vivid like the guy said above ^^
    Anyway, nice drop, good verses, nice rhymescheme, nice flow, Alllllllll good.
    Back. Again.

    yeaH GOOD joint more an all round poem if anything coz i dont see this working as a rap but nice writing and format......... guess the multies gave it a bit of rap flow still f'sho.... rhymes was all mostly basic/simple so diddnt impress me at all.meaning the end rhymes tho i guess they was set up with coo multies so that props it back up...
    was a little bit of imagery cudda been some more and maybe a bit more graphic i guess but coo joint still...

    Yup good poetics here..the rhymeschem you opted for was good as it always keeps the reader attentive and the titles and sub-titles used were very good to. The Shakey quote was good and related to the topic and i think that your verses gelled well. However, i reckon that you strayed off one or 2 points or maybe i didn't get it..i don't know but as said before the flow was certainly poetic or slow rap if you put it in a rappish way na mean. Your imagery was very good plus the vocabulary which tighed in with the piece upped the level. All in all a good piece, short of HOF due to reasons that i just didn't raise an eyebrow or get surprised or awed by the lines...not taking anything away from it htough it was a very good piece and you'll get your HOF if you keep trying na mean.

    I'd appreciate it if you could check mine and Xplicts FL topical champ battle...keep it fair with honest votes, thanks

    Wow. This leaves me very impressed. Especially at the end...When I got done reading that last bar(Like-thing)...I hated you for have written it. Lol!
    But yeah, your alliteration, scheme, emotion, everything was on point more than ever. Though yes, it did seem a bit more poetic than rap-like but meh...

    Check out 'The Legend of the Madman' if you can
