Flash and poetry
The poet Shihan employed a lot of flashy language in his poem. He recited his poem in a rap-like style, using catchy phrases like "kids don't play and god doesn't pray". The point of his poem was to show the audience the importance of words, and how life is all about them. At one point he goes on a rant about the world spinning, and if it stops words will still be forming. However, the reason he is "flashy" with his language is because he is trying to show the audience that people are more interested in sophisticated phrases and words, rather than the true meaning behind something "fascinated with more what is fabricated".
