i contemplate and hope to find
the places i must go, so ill continue to grow
up above this world, conquer and win
play lifes little games but never give in
roll the dice but just enough
not too much get lost in the ruff
go ahead try, i dare ya, die
risin up, risin, in, spin
the big wheel but please dont begin
to beleive what they say when they're movin their lips
troubles, chaos, and conflicts
thats what youll see but dont come to me
crying and whining like i didnt warn ya
so to all yous whos smart, let it be known
bow out of the game
take your ball and go home [comments] => 2 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 21 [informant] => staryeyed [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

The poem has a good rolling "beat." Have you considered hip-hop? I think this would make a good rap song. Some of your others would too.
