Well in my class right now we are doing poetry and well, I'm not the best at it. I need a sample piece that can influence me into making a good alliteration(?). Primarily starting with G.

God gave Gordon great genius
Gordon got great gumption
Gordon greatly gashed geezerly gentlemen
Gordon got grabbed
He was no longer a free man

Yeah. In case you didn't get it, the gist of that poem is that Gordon Freeman beats up old people and is arrested.

The Tiger by William Blake:

TIGER, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder and what art
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand and what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? What dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears,
And water'd heaven with their tears,
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?

Tiger, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
