#actually gonna call this one#iambic#pentameter#since the first line does such a good job of establishing the feel of iambic pentamenter#kicking off each line with an amphibrach is so good. power move#i dithered on where to divide up the second line#'i was the | last rat' for a nice dactyl/spondee feel#but i just love inverting the iamb of 'was like' to a trochee on 'i was' to match the move from simile to metaphor#amphibrach#spondee#trochee#tagging them since theyre interesting here#also i live in the uk and therefore the nuances of the whataburger ref are lost on me. other scholars can chime in on that i guess
