Seriously, set "Green Eggs & Ham" to a rap beat and you'll never be able to read it in any other way after that.<BR/>2) Did you know that you can't rap in iambic pentameter? Just try rapping Hamlet's soliloquy. However, rap is fitted for trochiac pentameter (stress on the first syllabyl instead of the second). Only the witches in "Macbeth" and the faeries in "A Midsummer's Night Dream" speak in trochiac pentameter (to emphasize their otherworldly natures). See how easy it is to set the witches' "Double double, toil and trouble" speech to a rap beat.Palomidesnoreply@blogger.com
