Tis poem is impossible t follow both by the so called poets rhetorical tone and the flashing words on the screen make it unreadable as well.

From what I got the poet was trying to convey that we no onger are abe to express ourselves online on paper or in voice because of the changes we are going through

Collins and sonnet

Both shakespeare and Collins are mocking their mistress, or their lover. Both give an entire list of reasons and examples of what their wife or lover is like. Although not perfect in the end they both come to the conclusion that their wife's are for Collins, the bread and knife and somehow wine, and shakespeare, no one can compare. Over time lovers can pick out the differences and downfalls of one another but they still have their incomparable virtues that make them who they are.
Both use comparisons to show how they feel about them. Coral is more red than her lips are, she is more like the fish under the bridge. Both negative but end somewhat positively..good can come out of bad in this case

Bill Collins

The poet uses humor to reach his audience. Almost every poem I've read in my lifetime had to always be a serious tone. His diction mimics the poem but in stead of using a serious tone, he makes it. Understandable and funny. All he has to do is take two lines interprate the rest and come up with his own. His tone and language makes fun of the poem, he uses a bland tone which makes it funnier because he is mocking the original poems tone

Dickens's poem

Her poem sounds somewhat sadistic in tone when read aloud. She sounds assertive in getting her point across about how to tell the truth, but not so much the full truth as she implies.
When I said it sounds sadistic it gives well with the poem and the meaning not only because of the way she wants to get her point across, but the meaning of telling the truth with a small lie must be told in the way the poem is written. When you want to make a point you have to be assertive and somewhat cold as her poem sounds, as when you tell a lie you must make it cold and not easily visible

I think the main point that the rapper is trying to get appoint is not to hold things in, but only to let them out when given the chance. Do nit speak when you are not asked to. Speak when spoken to. He says speak what you mean which means do not bullshit your way out of a situation, tell it like it is and not sugar coated at all
