It is time for our finalists to have their POEM-OFF!
Of course, I've been getting several questions as to how it'll exactly work out. Well, here's my plan.
The way this will work is that one of the finalists will improvise a rhyming poem directed at the other finalist. Then the next finalist will improvise a rhyming poem responding to them. They will do this two more times, so, basically, three times for each finalist.
For example, a segment of a poem-off between me and The Mighty Z-Rex about a year ago:
The Mighty Z-Rex: And now a new battle is risin'
and I know its not suprisin'
thats the gimick this time
Is Rhyme.
Reeves: I don't think you're supposin'
That you'll beat me down at prosin'
I'm the master at this thing
Let it swing
The Mighty Z-Rex: Alright, alright, same rules are before
We're gonna go till you cant see my first post nomore
Should the line limit be set are four?
And will we be free to mention whores?
And what about rhyming scheme?
Either or, in ABAB I'll reign supreme.
And though my couplets can be wack,
my freestyle will smack
you down.
Reeves: Let flow your style, don't try conforming
Feel free to range from rock to "porn"ing
Spin it, blend it, flip it upside down
You see how I changed my rhyming now
Love or ******** the rigid structures
I switch even when I'm not yet done
So keep on beatin' 'til your spleen ruptures
Or your poetic juices just cease to run
So slap it, scream it, kick, fight and battle
I'll beat it, I'll reach it, roar, rage, and rattle
I'll whip and slash like I'm rough raising cattle
So play it like you're playing piano
It's a game, it's a contest, it's a poem slam-o
And I'll run you down 'til you run out of ammo
If it is at all possible, see if you two can be online at the same time for it.
After the poems have been written, the voting panel will vote. Here is the 5-person voting panel, selected by me:
-Meacorme
-Saurciriel
-Ribbish
-Lord Narcissus
-Theodra
Don't worry, we don't have to be all on at the same time! Instead, on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the highest), you will PM me with three different scores for each finalists. I will average these scores and see who got the highest!
And now the fun part for the rest of you...it's time to show your support! Pick the finalist you like the most and cheer them on! Make them slogans or rhymes! Make it like a presidential campaign with poems instead of speeches! It will be a lot of fun and really get our energy out.
But I have said enough. Since Lyzz the Dark Beast's name goes after Kelti's (K-L), she will do the first improvised poem.
LET THE FINAL ROUND OF THE POETRY SLAM BEGIN!
