he choses to pick words that I don’t believe rhyme organically but instead they all have the same endings. This was a smart way for him to find a way of using the words that this sestets calls for (i.e. “ambition,” “audition,” and “competition”) without veering to far from the original rhyme scheme. This variation I believe is a great example of how the art lies in the phrasing. Before my analysis I had never even notice that those words didn’t rhyme but with combining Wittman’s lyrics with…

The Ottava Rima is consequently an expectation and a denial of the content contained within a signal form. This combination of two vastly different types of content, the lyrical beginning…

tend to doubt your capabilities without knowing them; kind of like judging a book by its cover. I choose my poem to rhyme because I wanted it flow and be like a rap. The structure is traditional because it rhymes,and it is like a sonnet in that the rhyme schemes are the same but mine is two lines longer than a sonnet. My five literary devices are an onomatopoeia, assonance, rhymes, similes and some imagery. An onomatopoeia is a word that sounds like a sound, and I used the word squall which mean…
