I've been meaning to <em>ask you</em>

If that's not too <em>drastical</em>

wonder if it's <em>okay</em>

To pick you up by<em> eight</em>


The rhyme scheme of this poem is AABB. The rhyme in this poem is achieved by the pronounciation and stress put into "ask you"; stressing ASK and then stressing the first syllabe of "drastical" and this way the rhyme on the first two lines is completed. Then for the last two lines the rhyme is achieved and the whole stanza resolved by stressing "okAY" and then "Eight".

Meter:

The stanza's meter is trochaic tetrameter (4 trochees, 8 syllables)

<em>I</em><em>'ve</em> <em>been </em>| <em>meaning</em><em> </em>| <em>to</em> | ask you

if that's | not | too | drastical

wonder | if | it's | okay

To pick | you up | by | eight


This rhyme scheme and meter are most used by rap artist for it's impact and flexibility to create a rhyme. The stressed words are the ones that address the receiver of the message that is a proposition for a meeting or a date. This poem is fitting for the rap music genre, for it's pronounciation  of key words (with a suburban accent) completes the rhyme in the second and third lines ("oKAY" and "DRAStical").

How does tom feel when he looks between his legs down onto Lexington Avenue?
Komok [63]
Terrified and possibly awestruck. He could have died right then. His wife is down there somewhere, a woman who loves him unconditionally... Here he is out on a ledge literally about to throw his life away. Yes, success is wanted, but at what cost?
