I Made A Rhyme ??
You are William Shakespeare
You have a certain eloquence and stoicism about you that is juxtaposed at times with a most peculiar sense of humor. Your world is orderly and simultaneously romantic. You are able to note beauty in the old and the new. Just keep in mind that passion and order are often at opposite ends of the spectrum.
Take the Which Poet are You? Quiz – brought to you out of boredom and pretention!
Not marble nor the gilded monuments
of princes shall outlive this pow’rful rhyme;
but you shall shine more bright in these contents
than unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time.
When wasteful war shall statues overturn,
and broils root out the work of masonry,
nor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn
the living record of your memory.
‘gainst death and all oblivious enmity
shall you pace forth; your praise shall still find room
even in the eyes of posterity
that wear this world out to the ending doom.
So, ’til the judgement that yourself arise,
you live in this, and dwell in lovers’ eyes.
