<p>Since people seem to be posting poetry; I wrote this poem in 7th grade and people said it was good:</p>

<p>"The Firefighters' Poem"</p>

<p>They hear the call
It’s very dire
In downtown Manhattan
There’s a huge fire
To the fiery blaze they quickly drive
Not caring if they make it back alive
When they get there
They are very surprised
To see that their fire
Is way up in the skies
Up the tall towers they swiftly climb
Trying to put out the fire in time
Then to everyone’s shock
The towers crumbled to the ground
With everyone hearing the horrible sound
On that day, 3,000 died
As many people mourned and cried
We may have lost many heroes and friends
But a hero’s life never ends</p>

<p>Damn, 7th grade was 9/11. It makes you think how long it's been. God bless those firefighters and policemen who risked their lives to save others.</p>

<p>Yeah, I wrote the poem shortly after the attacks, when my father's best friend was identified as one of the victims. It was a very emotional time for all of us I'm sure. As a NYC resident, it affected me in a way that no other event ever had. Unlike other events that occur in other parts of the country or world, this was just miles away from my home.</p>

<p>"Yo, VIP, Let's kick it! </p>

<p>Ice Ice Baby, Ice Ice Baby
All right stop, Collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Then I flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop? Yo -- I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle. </p>

<p>Dance, Bum rush the speaker that booms
I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly, when I play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it, You better gain way
You better hit bull's eye, The kid don't play
If there was a problem, Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it </p>

<p>Ice Ice Baby Vanilla, Ice Ice Baby Vanilla
Ice Ice Baby Vanilla, Ice Ice Baby Vanilla </p>

<p>Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in, the Vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point, to the point no faking
I'm cooking MCs like a pound of bacon
Burning them if they're not quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
Rollin' in my 5.0
With my ragtop down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby, Waving just to say Hi
Did you stop? No -- I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
That block was dead </p>

<p>Yo -- so I continued to A1A Beachfront Ave.
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
Jealous 'cause I'm out geting mine
Shay with a gauge and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall
The chumps acting ill because they're so full of "Eight Ball"
Gunshots ranged out like a bell
I grabbed my nine -- All I heard were shells
Falling on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car, slammed on the gas
Bumper to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene, You know what I mean
They passed me up, confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem, You, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it </p>

<p>Ice Ice Baby Vanilla, Ice Ice Baby Vanilla
Ice Ice Baby Vanilla, Ice Ice Baby Vanilla </p>

<p>Take heed, 'cause I'm a lyrical poet
Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town, that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
'Cause my style's like a chemical spill
Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed, This is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade, slice like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast, Other DJs say, "damn"
If my rhyme was a drug, I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem, Yo -- I'll solve it!
Check out the hook while Deshay revolves it. </p>

Ice Ice Baby Vanilla, Ice Ice Baby Vanilla </p>
