P.S. : I don't know if this is entirely grammatically correct in English. :P Poetry need not be grammatically correct.

Poetry need not be grammatically correct. I wasn't sure if some of the "style figures" (I don't know if this even means something in English :P) could be used in English, that's what I was wondering. Thanks for the tip, though. 
P.S. : An example of a "style figure" would be "The rest will suffer of his piercing gaze the dart."

I'm in a dancing mood. Here's my latest parody... Enjoy!! You might recognize this song. Feel free to shake your hips if you can get this tune playing in the background  (I've included a handy youtube link under the title to refresh your memory) DAMNATION (MAGIC) (Sung to the tune of Shakira's "Objection (Tango)"(Sung by Wrath of God )It's not black's fault that it's so irresistible But all the weakness of white isn't fixable Whenever they play creatures you sweeeep.. the... board. But it's not thanks to me; I'm ignoooored Thanks to Planar Chaos- Damnation ! I don't like the implication That black's in need of elevation Re-vei-llark is cool but it's insufficient Black is MUCH too PROficient Damnation ! My POsition's getting tragic Nobody plays white magic I'm getting replaced in your decks again No way, Rosewater's got to pay! Next to its discard and draw I look minimal That's why in all of your decks I'm invisible But you gotta know lifegain also counts... Oh, black does that too?! It's out of bounds!! See what I'm talkin' 'bout! Dam- -nation! I don't like the implication That Black's in need of elevation Akroma is nice but she's insufficient Black is just more efficient Damnation ! My POsition's getting tragic Nobody plays white magic I'm getting replaced in your decks again No way, No no no no... I wish there was a chance for... white today I wish that I could draw some... cards to play O-ther than plains... (8 drumbeats)Wrath's iconic , it's ironic Black's prolific , it's horrific Good spells are just not for me As you can plainly see But you can try me Just splash me Or go on, ignore me But please blame R&D Please blame R&D boy! (guitar break) Damnation ! I don't like the implication That black's in need of elevation Dee-OH-Jay is cool but it's insufficient White is SIMply DEficient Damnation ! My position's getting tragic Nobody plays white magic I'm getting replaced in your decks again No way, R&D has got to pay! Got to pay! Got to pay, ay, ay, ay, got to pay-ay-ay, I'm getting replaced in your decks again Got to pay! Got to pay! I've got a couple more in the works, please tell me what you think!

That person being William Shakespeare. I wonder if he would have enjoyed a game of Magic?
Do one for Ding Dong Bell! (Either the Merchant of Venice or Tempest version)
Still working on mine. You know me, I tend towards the musical ones... Okay, I'll get it in as soon as possible.
It may take some time, though, as I'm getting swamped for Finals.
My Classes this Year in Which I Have Finals:
Astronomy Latin II Catechesis II Nature of Man II Man and Society: Ancient Fundamentals of English II
Yeah...a lot of work.
For Astronomy, we have to be able to engage in a dialogue about how Sir Francis Bacon and Rene Descarte changed the way research works.
For Latin II, I just need to write a 3 page paper.
Cat II: Know almost the entire section in the Roman Catholic Catechism about the Profession of Faith.
Nature of Man: 4 page paper on whether or not the quote from Hamlet, "There's nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so,' is true or not. Use these sources: Leo Tolstoy, Hamlet, John Paul II, St. Augustine, Aristotle, Plato.
Man and Society Ancient: Be able to engage in a dialogue about how Ancient Greece changed its view of truth in the passage of time from Homer to the Peloppenesian Wars.
Fundamentals of English: Finish your complete autobiography.
Yeah. I'm busy.

Personally, I like it just from having read it.
It's pretty witty, and it's got enough seriousness in it that it makes sense.
Kudos, Opti. ^^

Ballad of a Crap Rare, to the tune of "Sittin on the Dock of the Bay"
Sittin' in the binder sleeve, I'll be sittin when the players leave. Watchin' the cards slip in, An' I'll watch 'em trade away again, yeah.
Sittin in the dusty sleeve, Watchin the cards trade and weave. Oo, I'm sittin in the dusty sleeve, Wastin' space.
I left my pack of Kamigawa, Headed for the trade binder. I'm not even worth a dollar, And it looks like no one's looking my way.
Looks like I'm not up for trade, Everything still remains the same. I can't do what good decks need me to do, So I guess I'll remain unclaimed.
I'm a sittin here, losin my folds, Never knowin what the future holds. Too few decks I've roamed, Just to make this sleeve my home.
Sittin in the dusty sleeve, Watchin the cards trade and weave. Oo, I'm sittin in the dusty sleeve, Wastin' space.
So I come back, and everything got bleached.
my ffn.net count is http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1408673/ if you like that sort of thing.
Don't kill anyone.
