* Simple story
Take a story that you like, and simplify the action to short words that you can make rhyme. I heard Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew" told in rap, and it was hilarious!

Do you have a favorite story in the Bible you can use?

* Love
If you'd rather stay personal, think of all the things you admire or want in a person, and sing about that. For a sample poem "My True Love" where you can change the words to be whatever you want, see also http://www.houstonprogressive.org/truelove.html

For Shakespeare set to Bach and Beethoven, see also
http://www.houstonprogressive.org/sonnet06.html

* Pick a beat or rhythm to write to
If you need help with rhythm, pick your favorite song or drum beat pattern, and set the words to that as the basic framework.

I rewrote the Bill of Rights to fit the DNC mix of Suzanne Vega's Tom's Diner, and have performed it as poetry. The beat helped me to organize the ten amendments so I could squeeze them all in. (see lyrics at http://www.houstonprogressive.org/isocracy.html)

I am not the only one who did something similar. So many other people set their own original words to Tom's Diner and sent them to Suzanne Vega that she released a special CD of these parodies and spin-offs.

NOTE : Though this article contains some advice on how to write poems ,it is by no means intended to show "how to become a poet", even less "how to become a GOOD poet". .Neither does it cover EVERY aspect of writing poetry. It is intended to help people who HAVE to write poetry - for class or to impress someone maybe.

The results will probably not be "great art", but o.k. for people who otherwise would have been completely lost.
