Hey teacher, show me hypallage's trick so sly, Where adjectives swap places, like "sleepy sun" in the sky— Not the sun that's tired, but the day feels slow and deep, A transferred epithet from ancient times, makes emotions leap! I beg you, let me master this shift that twists the sense, To paint vivid pictures with words in sweet pretense. Guide me through aposiopesis' dramatic pause... A sudden break in speech, like "If only you knew—" these laws Of silence take over, building tension high and tight, From past orators, it stirs fear or delight! Passion surges in the gap where words refuse to fall, Teach me this halt, to hold my audience call! Reveal hysteron proteron's backward, clever spin, Where effect comes before cause, like "die and be born again"— Flipping logic upside down, from Homer's epic tales, It rushes the mind forward on time's reversed rails! I yearn to wield this inversion, make sequences dance wild, Unlocking surprises in poems beguiled! Split open tmesis for me, insert words in the fray, Like "what-so-ever" or "abso-f-n-lutely" they say— A word torn apart with another jammed in, bold and fun, From Latin roots, it adds emphasis, second to none! I plead, let me slice language with this interrupting art, To spice up my verses, straight from the heart! Unfold synaesthesia's blend, where senses wildly mix, Like "loud colors" or "sweet silence," a sensory fix— Hearing tastes, seeing sounds, from poets like Baudelaire, It crosses wires in the brain, makes feelings rare! Teacher, ignite this fusion in my eager soul's core, So my words paint rainbows that roar! Correct me with metanoia's wise, rethinking turn, Like "It's good—no, it's great!" where revisions burn— Self-fixing the phrase for stronger, truer might, From Greek rhetoric, it polishes thoughts bright! I crave this amendment to refine my clumsy line, Turning rough drafts divine! Bind zeugma's yoke for me, one verb ruling two, Like "She broke his heart and the window," mismatched but true— Linking literal and figural in witty, sleek grace, From Cicero's speeches, it quickens the pace! Oh mentor, teach this coupling of the odd and the same, To spark clever fire in rhetoric's game! Let loose anacoluthon's shift, mid-sentence veer away— Starting "The king rules wisely—but tyrants fall," in disarray; Syntax breaks rules for natural, spoken flow, From Aristotle's notes, it lets real passion show! I burn to embrace this grammatical twist and bend, Where thoughts roam free, without end! In these lessons deep, from classics old and true, I chase every facet, teacher, all thanks to you— Each device's layers, from roots to effects so grand, Help me craft poetry that hearts understand!
Lyrics
Hey teacher, show me hypallage's trick so sly,
Where adjectives swap places, like "sleepy sun" in the sky—
Not the sun that's tired, but the day feels slow and deep,
A transferred epithet from ancient times, makes emotions leap!
I beg you, let me master this shift that twists the sense,
To paint vivid pictures with words in sweet pretense.
Guide me through aposiopesis' dramatic pause...
A sudden break in speech, like "If only you knew—" these laws
Of silence take over, building tension high and tight,
From past orators, it stirs fear or delight!
Passion surges in the gap where words refuse to fall,
Teach me this halt, to hold my audience call!
Reveal hysteron proteron's backward, clever spin,
Where effect comes before cause, like "die and be born again"—
Flipping logic upside down, from Homer's epic tales,
It rushes the mind forward on time's reversed rails!
I yearn to wield this inversion, make sequences dance wild,
Unlocking surprises in poems beguiled!
Split open tmesis for me, insert words in the fray,
Like "what-so-ever" or "abso-f-n-lutely" they say—
A word torn apart with another jammed in, bold and fun,
From Latin roots, it adds emphasis, second to none!
I plead, let me slice language with this interrupting art,
To spice up my verses, straight from the heart!
Unfold synaesthesia's blend, where senses wildly mix,
Like "loud colors" or "sweet silence," a sensory fix—
Hearing tastes, seeing sounds, from poets like Baudelaire,
It crosses wires in the brain, makes feelings rare!
Teacher, ignite this fusion in my eager soul's core,
So my words paint rainbows that roar!
Correct me with metanoia's wise, rethinking turn,
Like "It's good—no, it's great!" where revisions burn—
Self-fixing the phrase for stronger, truer might,
From Greek rhetoric, it polishes thoughts bright!
I crave this amendment to refine my clumsy line,
Turning rough drafts divine!
Bind zeugma's yoke for me, one verb ruling two,
Like "She broke his heart and the window," mismatched but true—
Linking literal and figural in witty, sleek grace,
From Cicero's speeches, it quickens the pace!
Oh mentor, teach this coupling of the odd and the same,
To spark clever fire in rhetoric's game!
Let loose anacoluthon's shift, mid-sentence veer away—
Starting "The king rules wisely—but tyrants fall," in disarray;
Syntax breaks rules for natural, spoken flow,
From Aristotle's notes, it lets real passion show!
I burn to embrace this grammatical twist and bend,
Where thoughts roam free, without end!
In these lessons deep, from classics old and true,
I chase every facet, teacher, all thanks to you—
Each device's layers, from roots to effects so grand,
Help me craft poetry that hearts understand!
