Ooh, Baby, I'm So Cool You'll Fry
I dare you to come post with me
this April on the NaMPy threads.
I'll whip my keen ability
around like reggaed Rasta dreds,
I'll floor you with my knack for rhyme.
Behold as my sheer brilliance spreads.
You'd think I do this stuff full-time,
so great am I compared to you.
You'll find my metered forms sublime,
I'll throw out a free verse or two
that weave a spell and hit a nerve,
each metaphor so fresh and new.
Beware the muses that I serve,
you'll only get what you deserve.
I took from the examples that it should be the same form as the original, if that's wrong I'm not redoing it.
So my second terza rima, no better than the first.
Thank you for the challenging prompt, I always have so much trouble writing from an opposing view, I know it weakens my work, lack of imagination, I guess. So thanks for the push, it was fun.
