I'm so nervous that I think I'm going to have a heart attack.

I've been thinking about this speech nonstop for over a month.

My younger brother is as slow as a sloth in the morning.

I finally found the photograph.

Lexi's feelings are as delicate as a butterfly's wings.

The triplets tried to trick their teachers.

Wes wanted to win in the worst way.

Brooke is a ray of sunshine in my life.

Billy is a machine in the weight room.

What is a stanza?

How many lines does this poem have?

If you miss

enough of life's

free throws

you will pay

in the end.

What kind of poem is the following example from Crossover?

"If my hair were a tree

I'd climb it.

I'd kneel down beneath and enshrine it.

I'd treat it like gold and then mine it.

Each day before school

I unwind it.

And right before games

I entwine it..."

What kind of poem is the following example from Crossover?

"Hustle dig

Grind push

Run fast

Change pivot

Chase pull

Aim shoot

Work smart

Live smarter

Play hard

Practice harder."

What kind of poem is the following example from Crossover?

"The Red Rockets,

defending county champions,

are in the house tonight.

They brought their whole school.

This place is oozing crimson

They're beating us

twenty-nine to twenty-eight

with less than a minute to go.

I'm at the free-throw line.

All I have to do

is make both shots

to take the lead.

The first is up, UP, and--

CLANK!--hits the rim..."

What kind of poem is the following example from Crossover?

"Josh Bell

is my name.

But Filthy McNasty is my claim to fame.

Folks call me that

'cause my game's acclaimed,

so downright dirty, it'll put you to shame.

My hair is long, my height's tall.

See, I'm the next Kevin Durant,

LeBron, and Chris Paul."
