Hey I have a poem I wrote for school and I’m gonna get it soon so please don’t end the contest till I get it. It’s quite long if I remember right it’s 5 stanzas with perfect rhyme and rythem check for yourself.
Some people go around the world
And think that they are done
But there are more sites to visit
Before the battle’s won
Take the humble acrobat
Upon his tight trapeze
Then discover his older brother
And slack him 'round with ease
Further into this abstract realm
You’ll find some strange formations
Clovers red and trigons green
And more beyond your expectations
Up upon the Black Hop peaks
Sits the temple of White Buddha
Overlooking an ocean teeming with
Duncan Barracudas
And even now, after such adventure
Your journey’s far from done
There’s much to learn and much to make
So go and have some fun
I only throw YYJ
But that will change in May,
Especially if I get the Spyy Pro
Oh, I wouldn’t ask fo-no-mo
I’m not gonna lie,
I’ve never throw a Spyy,
I wish it could be mine
Just like my valentine
But alas, just like my valentine
The Spyy Pro won’t be mine
I shall remain forever alone
Not knowing how it feels to throw a Spyy Pro.
Up and down
My yoyo goes
Where it will go
No one knows
The yoyo never stops
Doesn’t miss a beat
Doing Eli hops
Is no feat
But still it is alone
No friends with it
A solitary yoyo
With no one to fit
And all alone
It Asian pops
Through the strings
it flips and flops
Is it sad
To be so skilled
But to be a lad
With his heart unfilled
But before it go
Let me tell you this
PICKLE PIE
I just noticed that the winner will be selected at random, which I don’t think is very fair. I think it should be based on which you think is best.
YoYo, I never told you how I truly feel
You mean to me a great deal
You are my eternal sunshine
When I first met you I knew it was a sign
With our love combined everything is in reach
Our connection cannot be breached
The moment I saw you my heart was sold
We fit together like a nut and bolt
We met each other, some time ago
Since then my love for you did only grow
Eternal bliss is where I’m bound
Together, everything will come round
This I love your smoothness and sleekness is for you, I hope you will like it
Because loving you, I will never quit
I look forward to our next moment together
With you, life cannot become any better
I love to write poems,
but not many people know them.
So I decided to right one about yoyos,
And how the make me feel so close.
By close I mean to myself,
I learn things no one else can find out.
I learn to dance, I find my best wealth.
I love this so much, there is no doubt.
It has made my life better.
I live for the times when we are alone.
You’re always there for me, even when I feel like I’m in fetters.
My life is like you, it goes up and down.
But you’re here for me, you make me lose that frown.
I dance with you.
Everyday I do.
You need me to dance.
You put me in a trance.
Your melodious buzzing makes me feel so alive.
Happier, then let’s say, a buzzing bee hive.
Even though you’re so simple, you’ve changed my thoughts about myself.
I need you, you need me, you make me happier than an elf.
It’s about time I should stop typing, and pick you up.
You’re lonely without me, like water, without a cup.
I’m waiting patiently as you spin around.
Thank you, you’ve turned my life upside down.
yoyos are red
yoyos are blue
here is my poem
so send me the yoyo
lol
And now a sonnet about competing.
Off stage I sit and wait for whats to come,
My throws in hand my stomach filled with flies.
My name gets called and to the stage I run,
I concentrate on fun not just the prize.
Up starts the song but I screw up my throw,
I fell the audience cringe at my mistake.
I take a breath, flick start, roll up and go,
Again I start but feel my body shake.
My performance is quite far from great,
But how get better less that step I take.
And yes that was in iambic pentameter.
GOT MY SWAG ON, YOYO IN MY HOLSTER
WITH THESE TRICKS THAT I BOLSTER
GOT THESE FEMALES QUESTIONIN MY SKILL
HIT IT WITH A SLACK FROM THE BACK, SO TRILL
STAY FROSTED, LOST, MAN THESE YOYOS COST MONEY
THANK YOU BASED GOD, FOR BLESSING ME WITH THESE HONIES
AVALANCHE, FOOLS GOLD
MY RHYMES, STRAIGHT COLD
YOU THINK I CARE ABOUT A SPIRIT BOMB?
I’M ON THAT CRAZY STRAIGHT OUTTA VIETNAM
CLYW, SPYY, WHY DO YOU EVEN TRY?
GOD TRICKS, DUNCAN, MY TRICKS MCJUNKIN
THIS IS A RAP ABOUT THROWIN,
SWAGTASTIC LOVE OF YOYOIN
IF YOU DON’T THINK I’M HOOD ENOUGH, JUST GET OUTTA MY FACE
I DON’T WANT ANY OF THESE HATERS ALL UP IN MY BREATHING SPACE
RHYMES COLDER THAN THE ALUMINUM AT THE END OF THE STRING
MAKE YOU GO IGNANT WITH ALL YO DUMB DINGS
MY THROWS ARE STRAIGHT MINT, PICKED FRESH
YOU GOT FLAT SPOTS, IT MAKES IT COST LESS? (what am I saying…)
I COULD GO ON, BUT I’LL JUST EDIT THIS LATER
UNTIL THEN, DON’T BE HATERS

I hope you don’t mind if I record myself rapping this, add some instrumentals, and do a yoyo video to it.
If you want, I can make it long enough to be an actual song. Like if you honestly want to do this.
no, its not just a yoyo,
its something more than you could ever know,
its the joy of playing for hours on end,
the emptiness of our wallets from the money we spend.
Only few will ever know the joy,
of this wonderful little silly toy.
Yes, definitely. In fact, I’ll get started on a beat right now. This could be a good opportunity to exercise my rudimentary knowledge of Ableton Live.
Send me the instrumental when you finish, that way I can use the syllable count from the beat to make this rap a lot more consistent.
I’ll send you a prototype in a bit. I’ve never made a proper hip hop instrumental before so it won’t be too pro (though I have done a little bit of dabbling in music production and I’ve certainly listened to plenty instrumentals). My dad plays sax which I could sample in a pinch. Also, some of the lines are a little awkward. Maybe replace the sixth one with " got a straight up case full of all my honeys" and end the line with enough rather than dragging out out to face.
Blunt the bearings and bend the strings!
Smash the ground and burn the dings!
Chip the ano and crack your face!
These are the things yoyoers hate!

No I feel you, the rap was written to a regular beat in my head. I was listening to ASAP so I just used that. I will change it depending on what you send me, that way the rap will actually flow, rather than be all chopped.
Guys this is cool, hope you guys work out something, I would love to see that 
We could call it the YoyoExpert rap or something, that’d be pretty awesome actually!
