  1. On the road, I watch my gauge;

    Lately, this incites my rage.

    Petrol pricing makes me balk.

    Maybe I would rather walk!

    Still, my dial points to "E,"

    As some sheik delights in glee.

    Where's the nation's G-N-P?

    We're exhausted! Can't you see?

    Oil barons, heed the call!

    Can't you hear us caterwaul?

    Will you ratchet up the price?

    C'mon, bigwigs! Just play nice!


  2. how? by writing. basically, you use a pencil and a piece of paper. you should probably use your brain, too. have fun!

  3. does it have to rhyme and/or have meter?

    if not, just write a nonfiction paragraph, delete a lot so only some main words remain, a voila! a poem! for example:

    Fish are aquatic animals that swim in the deep blue sea. The have gills...etcetc.

    and then:

    Fish

    aquatic, swimming in the

    deep

    blue

    sea.

    Strange gills that...

    etcetc.

    :]

  4. I have a car that spits and sputters

    'cause it doesn't like the words I utter

    as every day goes up the gas

    and my paycheck doesn't seem to last

    so next time I decide to roam

    I'll walk and leave my car at home

  5. Umm write it..and why would you write a poem about it? Why don't you make an essay and send it to the federal government. They take an interest in throwing away your useless words! :DDD

  6. Push, push thank you  Bush

    Oh you know I hate to pump

    Push, push thank you Bush

    I'm bringing my car to the dump

  7. Google it

  8. Why did I not think of getting my homework done this way.  

  9. I'd try four stanzas in 'Terza Rima" (Dorothy Parker was wonderful at it; Dante wasn't bad, either.)

    gives the idea of the form, but the 'sonnet' thing is a digression.
