Another story
Another pro
Another con
A story’s flow
The struggle between
A pro and a con
The good and mean
A fight and a song
Suffering a passion
Like the passion of Christ
Our tragic heros
Their wills won’t suffice
Hamlet, his father
Walter, the check
Godot, awaited
All given their respect
All tragic heroes
Loman, a shame
Their confined struggles
Gatsby’s, a dame
However, life could care less
Of the tragedy these heroes face
Their life, eternal stress
Regardless of time or race
These tragic heroes
Names forever famed
Placed on a stage
Their names proclaimed
Greatness their status
Wherever they came from
The whole lot stand tall
All with their agon
Gatsby the hero
Gatsby the fraud
Gatsby the poor
Gatsby the god
Gatsby, he rocks
Gatsby, who’s that?
Gatsby, he sucks!
Gatsby’s a rat!
The man, named Gatsby
Took James Gatz’ life
Who knew a girl named Daisy
Wanted her as his wife
However, Daisy couldn’t accept
For the price was too high
The currency Gatsby had
Couldn’t even get him a high five
A saddening fate
For Gatsby’s story to end
It’s all over James
No more need to pretend
Agon
Gatsby
