<p>My thesaurus got bored yesterday and forced me to hastily write a poem. I hate poems, but I was subdued by the thesaurus and its overwhelming dark power.</p>

<p>If you are under a similar threat of a thesaurus, feel free to improve the stupid poem :stuck_out_tongue:
[Aha yes, I am knowingly aware of the clear, lucid and evident fact that I utilized the usage of too much redundant tautology]</p>

<p>‘Rampage’</p>

<p>Rushing, rambling, rocketing
rabbit Roger runs.</p>

<p>Reckless, ruthless, relentless,
recalcitrant rascals rebel,
ruining robust ramparts,
reclaiming regional resources.</p>

<p>Renouncing, recanting, rebuking
regional rules,
revolting revolutionaries repugnate:
raiding, ransacking rail-roads.</p>

<p>Reigning, regnant,
ruler reacts,
releasing rabid rabbits -
Roger’s relatives.</p>

<p>Reluctantly, remorsefully, regretfully
restive ruffians recoil,
reneging remembered remote
respectability, righteousness, reputability.</p>

<p>Rejoicing, reveling
reigner reconstructs ramparts,
rationalizes, rebilitates, revives, resurrects, resuscitates, revitalizes, regenerates
regions:</p>

<p>rebuilds roads, residences, relaxation resorts
reinstates refugee reservations
raises rustic riches
relieves rough relationships
restores rollicking rivers, riveting rhetorial repartees
restrains rapacious roughnecks
resolves rueful rumors
repulses reptilian rancor
redresses red-blooded rapists
refunds, repays, reimburses, remunerates, recompensates ravished rovers.</p>

<p>Reposing, resting, recuperating
rabbit Roger relaxes



relieved.</p>

<p>Sorry for double post [couldn’t edit]</p>

<p>Changes: ruler reacts –> ruler ripostes rapidly</p>

<p>redresses red-blooded rapists –> repels red-blooded rapists</p>

<p>nice idea! well i don’t know much about poetry but i didn’t understand this part


</p>

<p>^what’s the meaning of the bolded part?</p>

<p>oh by the way you might not want to post this on the internet since 1) you probably don’t have it copyrighted or anything and 2) if you turn it in and the teacher finds it online you’ll have to prove that you are “myspip” and it might be weird haha</p>

<p>Haha, it is not an assignment or anything :stuck_out_tongue: Feel free to steal it too :P</p>

<p>With those lines I thought to convey that the rebels felt ashamed for having abandoned their past glory :P</p>
