Example:
Let's let it all hang out like a balcony
One last time, the best is what you about to see
So make it worth it tonight, only so you know I never hurt you in spite
Love me like you never will again, it's our last time
Tonight forget about the pastime

Examples:
Ayy, I've been flucking does and poppin' pillies
Man, I feel just like a rockstar (star)

Example: 
That was me in BK on Atlantic,
Never looked both ways, ran in traffic.
Pops went away but I stayed, vagrant.
Placed where the steel and cement became nature.
Love what you did with the place, it looks gorgeous.]]> 2017-10-12 14:54:44 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196465044 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196466449  Repetition is used to tell about a feeling or idea, create rhythm, or develop a sense of urgency.

Example:  Man you shook cause ain’t no such things as halfway crooks scared to death you scared to look you shook  -Mobb Deep]]> 2017-10-12 14:56:59 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196466449 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196469558 In poetry, the speaker is the voice behind the poem—the person we imagine to be saying the thing out loud.
Example: Bill Cosby narrating ]]> 2017-10-12 15:02:17 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196469558 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196472435 Figure of speech. An expressive, nonliteral use of language. Figures of speech include hyperbole, irony, metaphor, and simile, schemes (anything involving the ordering and organizing of words).

Example:  "but like the sun know you know i found my way back'round" -J.cole]]> 2017-10-12 15:07:48 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196472435 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/196474921  Imitation of a sound made by or associated with its referent. The use of imitative and naturally suggestive words for rhetorical, dramatic, or poetic effect.
Example: When my homies pull up on your block
They make that thing go grrra-ta-ta-ta (pow, pow, pow)

Example: Peter Piper picked a patch of pickle peppers.]]> 2017-10-16 14:48:39 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197384261 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197389322 Definition. Rhyme scheme is a poet's deliberate pattern of lines that rhyme with other lines in a poem or a stanza. The rhyme scheme, or pattern, can be identified by giving end words that rhyme with each other the same letter.
Example:
See I was much more bummy and less star
When my mom's unemployment check wouldn't stretch far
Wishin' that my confidence was made out of Kevlar 
And I could superhero, save the day, cop her next car
Coming out the Bay feels like nobody gets far
Feels like we're doomed
Like they're building a Death Star]]> 2017-10-16 14:56:10 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197389322 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197392294 Meter is a stressed and unstressed syllabic pattern in a verse, or within the lines of a poem. Stressed syllables tend to be longer, and unstressed shorter. In simple language, meter is a poetic device that serves as a linguistic sound pattern for the verses, as it gives poetry a rhythmical and melodious sound. 
Example: Tempo of a song  

See I was much more bummy and less star
When my mom's unemployment check wouldn't stretch far
Wishin' that my confidence was made out of Kevlar ]]> 2017-10-16 15:00:36 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197392294 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197395731 Free verse is an open form of poetry. It does not use consistent meter patterns, rhyme, or any other musical pattern. Many poems composed in free verse thus tend to follow the rhythm of natural speech.

Example: It is like an example without much rhythm or rhyming. Fly by the seat of your pants, nothing planned unfettered life, free to travel to any area, New adventures await every step of the way.]]> 2017-10-16 15:06:20 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197395731 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197397895 End rhyme is defined as when a poem has lines ending with words that sound the same. 
Example: Star Light, Star Bright. ]]> 2017-10-16 15:09:22 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197397895 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197398978 A simile is an easy way to compare two things. As long as the comparison is one thing to another, whether or not the two things being compared are actually alike or not, you can consider it a simile poem.
Example: poems include any poem that makes comparisons using the words "like" or "as."]]> 2017-10-16 15:11:17 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197398978 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197400187 Unlike a simile that uses “like” or “as”,  Metaphors are commonly used throughout all types of literature, but rarely to the extent that they are used in poetry.
Example: a famous line from Romeo and Juliet has Romeo proclaiming “Juliet is the sun”]]> 2017-10-16 15:13:05 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197400187 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197422102 In poetry, internal rhyme, or middle rhyme, is rhyme that occurs within a single line of verse, or between internal phrases across multiple lines. By contrast, rhyme between line endings is known as end rhyme.

Example: I'ma stack this money higher, higher (yeah)  Get flyer, flyer, get higher, higher (yeah, okay)]]> 2017-10-16 15:47:32 UTC https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197422102 anders_johnston https://padlet.com/anders_johnston/vwvfbf6uwf5x/wish/197425255 Personification is a form of figurative language in which something that is not human is given human characteristics. This device is often used in poetry to enhance the meaning and beauty of poems.
