"Viva La Vida"

I used to rule the worldSeas would rise when I gave the wordNow in the morning I sleep aloneSweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the diceFeel the fear in my enemy's eyesListen as the crowd would sing"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the keyNext the walls were closed on meAnd I discovered that my castles standUpon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

Page 4: The Rose That Grew From Concrete Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete? Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringingRoman Cavalry choirs are singingBe my mirror, my sword and shieldMy missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explainOnce you go there was neverNever an honest wordAnd that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild windBlew down the doors to let me inShattered windows and the sound of drumsPeople couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries waitFor my head on a silver plateJust a puppet on a lonely stringOh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringingRoman Cavalry choirs are singingBe my mirror, my sword and shieldMy missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explainI know Saint Peter won't call my nameNever an honest wordBut that was when I ruled the world

COMPARISONS/MEANING/IMPACT

Page 28: The Rose That Grew From Concrete Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete? Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with

HYPERBOLE

Hyperbole is a form of figurative language. It is an exaggeration or overstatement intended to produce an effect without being taken literally.

Examples: “I studied for 500 hours and still failed the test!” or “I’ve told you a million times not to exaggerate.”

Page 29: The Rose That Grew From Concrete Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete? Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with

HYPERBOLE

Hyperbole is often confused with a simile or metaphor because it often compares two objects. The difference is that hyperbole is an exaggeration. An example would be: “His feet were as large as barges.” It looks like a simile and is comparing foot size to the size of a barge. Instead it is a hyperbole due to the exaggeration used.

Page 30: The Rose That Grew From Concrete Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete? Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with

HYPERBOLE EXERCISE Copy the hyperbole. Then write its literal meaning.

1. I nearly died laughing.

2. Mary tried a thousand times to play the piano.

3. I could sleep for a year.

4. Grant was hopping mad.

5. This box weighs a ton.

6. I’m so hungry, I could eat a horse.

Page 33: The Rose That Grew From Concrete Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete? Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with

I Felt a Funeral in my Brain (excerpt)

And when they all were seated,

A Service, like a Drum –

Kept beating - beating - till I thought

My Mind was going numb

Sonnet Example

Shakespeare:

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate.

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.

Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimmed;

And every fair from fair sometimes declines,

By chance or nature’s changing course untrimmed.

But thy eternal summer shall not fade
