freeze tile

ni hao, all. im currently jammin to immortal technique and thinking about the awesome freestyle battles he. its pretty amazing how people can become so good at rhyming ont he fly. i feel like freestyle is a necessary part of poetry becuase if you can crate poetry under pressure improv, then just writing should be that much easier. i feel like we should do some sort of freestyle project whether its freestyle battles or just writing freestyle poetry. i know people get into a flow but then they kinda stop to think about what they wrote, or at least i do. actual freestyle is hard and random but i feel like it really helps the thought out writings. well im not sure what to say about poetry anymore at this point. i guess ill address the group discussions. theyre a lot easier to do in small groups than in front of the whole class. we played a little bit of music while reading poems during our discussions i think it would be cool to do some of that too. it gets you into the rhythm and is exciting and fun to see how people can lay down prewritten rhymes to an instrumental track or rhythm. i now bid you farewell.
