1. I think that Shakespeare wrote in blank verse because sometimes when I am reading something that rhymes and is super long I eventually don't even understand what I am reading, I think it aids the drama even if it is confusing. I'm just thinking about all the words rhymes and kinda give myself a beat to go off of. So I'm not actually focusing on the sentence just the words that are rhyming.

He is the reason that all of this happened, he was too power
