Lo7, all the poor misfits, chit chatting on a troll thread for that's all they know to do-- they cannot do poetry that anyone will read!

Jordy, you know what you say about perspective and proportion? Then you won't mind the perspective you set with your poorly disguised petty passive aggressive spiting people...
Anaxagoras saith:- I make known that the beginning of all those things which God hath created is weight and proportion,
~~Turba Philosophorum
and doubters will be crushed by the weight of my disproportionate spate of irate dictates.

This is hilarious too:

And the rap battle of Columbus that ensued...
WILL: I create and therefor I am great and my editor says that you all don't rate and cannot relate to why I'm so great so
you all just hate.
ASH: So you're great- please elaborate. Your lame one liners ain't rating so great, so I had to abate my berating so to
create the above rap for you so you don't come presenting crap prate for your rap.
I will at least concede that you're great- at creating hate. But being great in verse is very much in debate- you and your
idol Buk are definitely related- in being highly overrated. Your verse might be great- for being lot lizard bait. And I'm
sure they'll rate it great for their usual going rate.
