twitch, tap, raddda-dap-tap, tap any harder and your fingers will snap. twitch, tap, badda-dap-bam, i smiled and did the same. going along to a tune only you could only hear, a snap and a clack resounded off-time around the multiple rooms with a clang, a consistent beating in a room of laughter. and you never even noticed how you never stopped, drumming, twitch, rad-dda-dap-tap. and because i could not get that **** song out of my head too, i tapped along with you, wishing for something more. boom, clap, radda-dap-clap, feel any more and my heart'll snap.

tapping - light verse
twitch, tap, raddda-dap-tap, tap any harder and your fingers will snap. twitch, tap, badda-dap-bam, i smiled and did the same. going along to a tune only you could only hear, a snap and a clack resounded off-time around the multiple rooms with a clang, a consistent beating in a room of laughter. and you never even noticed how you never stopped, drumming, twitch, rad-dda-dap-tap. and because i could not get that **** song out of my head too, i tapped along with you, wishing for something more. boom, clap, radda-dap-clap, feel any more and my heart'll snap.
so, i'm trying to be cultured. so i searched up this huge glossary full of poetic terms and different types of works [sub-divisions in the world of poetry]. so, as a personal challenge, i'm going to try to write a poem based on one of those styles, which will be chosen at random. this one is a light verse; a poem about small, whimsical things.  although it took a whole new meaning at the end. oh well. hope you enjoyed!
