RAP #2


Spreading the Hellenistic 

Alexander the great made up a new culture
Greece, Persia, Egypt, India, together
He was just like an assaulter
Charging in these countries 
When his time came and he laid dead
The Hellenistic culture has already spread
Through this world they could speak to each other 
People were ubiquitous, all cultures everywhere
Woah, do I see a Egyptian there?


Brotha's, motha's, sistah's and fatha's
All admired Alexandria the city of beauty 
It was the pimp cup in Egypt, the ceneter of the fruity
Trade ships came in and out (In and Out)
This city was a success....
(no doubt)


The secret allure of this advanced city
I'll name it to you without a single pity
T'was the palace, the lighthouse, the library
And let's not forget the building of gallery
(Museum!)


The Greeks were full of themselves
Aristarchus believed in himself
and stated
the planets went around the sun
But Ptolemy was no fun
He put our world in the center
and the people believed him better


Ertasthoeus was a rhymer
but he also was an astronomer
He predicted Earth as 28,000 miles
The right ones were inspired from Euclid's files


All men of the Hellenistic
as well as a gifted man name Archimedes 
Proved much weight could be pulled
By a force that could push light wood


HE SO FLY
HE SLAMMED UP
A MACHINE!

The Zeno made a school of thoughts 
Values of harmony and good will was taught

Another man put a word in the dict' 
IT MEANT
Pleasures for humans were the right addict

The world of the culture spread 
Also built sculptures, I read
It honored gods and heroes
And scraped faces that looked like clones
Hellenistic finally descends
And everything comes to an end
