Description

With me being a poet, this idea came up in my mind to have a debate like this. Me and my opponent will both write poems in each of our rounds. It can be about anything, just make it stand out. The voters will choose and analyze which person had the better poems. Serious poets only

Round 1
Pro
#1
Title: Prologue

Poetic prophecies partake like pass-over providing powerful pictures

Particular poets post profound poetry pillars putting proper props to pens

Persuading people's perspectives proves this power pledges pattern-less pieces

Please practice peeping prolific potent poems that are postured to the point that preaches peace

Prayer progression possessing passion preventing or professing passage protesting political pessimist

Personal path in protecting my prone to my penmanship
Con
#2
Title: End

The end is unavoidable

The choices we make unescapable

The end is made out to always be at a happy place

But we know that is not the case

Yet still, are we here waiting for the end

Yet still, are we here waiting for the beginning to descend



The End

Round 2
Pro
#3
Title: Out of sight, out of mind

Obligation of obedience orchestrates an obvious originality on oneself like opiums

Objectives orally opening optics to oppressive organizations

Objecting occupations of ominous orders is often overlooked

Orators like ovens; never overcooked

Offering to the omnipotent one originates opportunity overcoming obstacles and obscurities

Oceans opens outstanding oracles ordering oxygen to my overviews organically from the outlet

The Tide:

The tide comes and goes

Like things that we have contrived

But won't see again
Round 3
Pro
#5
Title: Encompass 

Extraordinarily exhaling energy through emeralds enchanting everyone electrically

Empowering the exercise of equality, eloquently emphasizing existence enables elevation

Ears experience education and emotions experience excitement

Encouraging everlasting enlightenment, executes eagle-like elements

Engravings equals excellence, egos entrusting emancipation evolving to an evening's entertainment; exchanging so evenly we're eye to eye

Establishing effortless easygoing efficient enjoyment engaging on Earth
Con

Compass:

There once was a compass that broke

It was fixed by a chubby old bloke

The compass got him lost

And his fingers turned to frost

Then he stomped and he stomped until it started making smoke

Round 4
Pro
#7
Title: Tenacious 

Transcending therapeutic text through telekinesis to train my techniques

Thesis though; technology teaches teenage tendencies

Take time to treasure them cause technically, time's a treasure

Today, tonight, tomorrow's tactics testify the tester, theorize the taste of triumph, the taste of tribulation

The two tie in to translate tranquility to tons torn between the trinity or trickery in trust, tell a tale that's timeless to the tongues

As you can tell from round 1 down to the last round here, follow the letters and they spell POET, and that is what I am. Thanks for your time.

Water

Water can be anything

It can be still as a stone or as powerful as a storm

It can be shaped into everything

Or into something without form

It can take the form of an ocean

Endless as can be

Rolling on and on in perpetual motion

Showing us things we can't see

It takes the form of waves with foam oh so white

Basking in the light from the flaring sun

Reflecting it's beautiful light

In magnificent beauty rivaled by none

For water's beauty is unparalleled

Its power cannot be quelled


As you can see my poems followed formats such as limericks, haikus, and Shakespearean sonnets, and from the round one down to here I typed all of these on the spot did not copy and paste any of them. I hope you recognize I am the better poet and would like to thank Average12 for instigating this debate.
