you be the judge

The most ambitious rhyme ever attempted in rock?
My blood’s so mad
Feels like coagulating
And I’m just sitting here
Contemplating
Doesn’t quite work, but I admire the effort.

    Did you really just leap from an economic treatise to Barry McGuire without so much as a segue?

    Does life wait for segues? Can blood really be mad or have feelings at all?
    The rhyme deserve some amount of respect, but the meter is all wrong and I can’t dance to it. The syllables are right, but the stresses are uneven.
    But, in fairness, we probably are on the eve of distruction, so we’ll cut him some slack.

    Aw, segues are for sissies!
    Yeah, on the Eve of Destruction you probably aren’t too concerned with meter. Although, this song is from like 40 years ago and we’re still hanging in there, so maybe we’re not quite on the brink yet.
