Zogcast! | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
Calling Zog, calling Zog... | 0:00:06 | 0:00:07 | |
Zoooooog! | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
Today, we talk about poetry. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:10 | |
Ooh, I love poetry! | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
I'm going to get myself a wheel, slap on some clay | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
and make myself a jug. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:15 | |
Poetry, not pottery. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
So, how do you become a poet? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:18 | |
All you've got to do is write words down. They don't even have to rhyme. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
Ooh, I've got something I'd like to write a poem about. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
-My favourite fruit. -Go for it, bro. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
The Orange, by Zig. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
My favourite fruit is the orange | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
It really is rather borange | 0:00:29 | 0:00:30 | |
Once I eat its norange | 0:00:30 | 0:00:31 | |
I eat its fruity slorange. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
Er, Zig, really great job, except they probably should be real words. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:37 | |
Oh, sorrange! | 0:00:37 | 0:00:38 | |
ZIG BEATBOXES | 0:00:38 | 0:00:39 | |
A poem, you see, is like painting with words | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
'Bout anything at all, whatever occurs | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
Some have rhythm, others rhyme | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
But here's what true every time | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
Just read a poem, give it a go | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
Or write one yourself, you just never know | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
Wordsworth, Bronte, Muhammad Ali | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
Michelle, Eldon, James and Riley. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
Zig, Zig, Zig, Zig, they're not poets. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
They're the cast of The Next Step. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:00 | |
Ah, but they make poetry with their feet. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
Hmm, true dat. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
Orange, you're so...orangey... | 0:01:04 | 0:01:08 | |
Zig, don't you have another favourite fruit | 0:01:08 | 0:01:09 | |
you could read a poem about? | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
I'd like to say yes, but no. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
So, who's this Shakespeare guy? | 0:01:13 | 0:01:14 | |
Ah, yes, Shakespeare! | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
Of course, that's not his real name. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
They called him that because his first job was to shake spears. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
What kind of job is shaking spears? | 0:01:21 | 0:01:22 | |
It was before lollipop ladies were invented. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
He used to stand outside ye olde school and wave his spear | 0:01:24 | 0:01:28 | |
at the horse and cart. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:29 | |
"Oi, you! Stop! Let these children cross ye road safely." | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
And then, one day, he was so bored he said, | 0:01:33 | 0:01:34 | |
"I'm tired of shaking spears. I've been doing this job for years." | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
"Ooh," he thought to himself, | 0:01:37 | 0:01:38 | |
"I like the way those words sounded together. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
"Now I'd like to spend my time writing words that rhyme." | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
And THAT'S how poems were invented. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
Wow! Really? | 0:01:45 | 0:01:46 | |
Yeah! Probably. I mean, sort of, I guess... | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
-I wandered lonely... -Yes? | 0:01:49 | 0:01:50 | |
-I wandered lonely... -Yes? | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
I wandered lonely as an orange. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
Argh! | 0:01:54 | 0:01:55 | |
So, there you have it, all you need to know about poetry! | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Zig and Zag signing off - but, remember, zoglings, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
