Well shit, guess what everyone..

According to arktic frost.
Fictional books are poems... Conversation transcripts are poems... Movie scripts are poems... The bible is a poem... The Quran is a poem... My msn name is a poem... My rap name is a poem... This button under my post saying "Post quick reply" is a poem..

Where does it end? Poetry must have guidelines to define the nature of poetry itself. The definitions you gave imply this clear as day and prove my point. I have said poetry can be used as a form of rap, however in no way does rap fall into a catagory of 'poetry', that is obsurd..

Look at lyrics that brag and mess around.. As quoted in part of my other thread some of my rap lyrics that have no relation to poetry at all:

I'm a metaphorical erasor, slash you with a razor.
Till a warm gash of blood grubs the face of.
Some gay cunts; & thats the case study done.
So fucking run; I got another gun thats my other lung.
You bloody nuns; I'll give the crowd what they came for.
Pick a straight whore; rip her brains raw with a chain saw.
Still remain all; ruthless to leave ya crew toothless.
Like two kids; acting stupid in a booth with.
The illest rappers around; quick damage ya town.
With hammers that pound an activist down.
You cat'll be ground, by my rhyme morter and pestle.
On-board with the best crew, dopium all gonna test you.
And yeah;
I'm at it again; back like an addict with pens.
Smackng ya friends; with these raps that offend.

When you try and explain to me how this rap fits into the catagory of poetry. I will give you a cookie........

My point remains true to what I've been saying this whole way through..

Poetry can be used as rap to a certain extent, but acting like rap is a form of poetry is naieve as hell..

Oh hey, by the way "As in form or sound" Is refering to being vocally spoken. Not instrument/s playing with a drum beat...
