Step 1: Both of my poems were approved by Mrs. V. Actually, due to my indecisiveness I am now quite insure of which poem to use. At first I thought that I would not do the first poem because it would seem too much like propaganda, so I wrote another poem. But I was not inspired to write a piece of poetry so I came up with this other poem. It is quite amusing but I'm not sure if it will yield good results on an MMP video.
I think that I will make both videos and see which one is better. I will save them both to storage and present the one which I find more interesting.

My inability to write
A decent piece of poetry
Frustratingly annoying is
The lack of inspiration

A thousand themes run through my head
Too fast to catch and use
Because my thoughts are jumbled up
I’m utterly confused

Random little strips of thought
I catch and then I write them down
Still they don’t make any sense
At least not in that context

My soul is burning with a passion bright
A flaming hot inferno of the heart
And that’s a reason good enough for me
To change the meter of this poetry

MMP Plan

Step 1 I need to write a poem, and get it approved by Mrs. V
I have a lot of work with Shakespeare, but a lot less homework due to it, so I will have done the poem(Step1) by Thursday, 14th May

Step 2 I am going to choose some random pictures from the internet, with a high resolution. I also might additionally download or create a video that I will use.
I will do some research and get all the pictures I need by Friday, May 15th

Step 3 I will put together the video with text on Window Movie Maker.
I will work on the video the next weekend, but due to Shakespeare, I will have limited time, but will have done a great amount by Wednesday 20th May
Step 4 I will then make titles and credits.
The video should be done by that weekend. I will make the titles and credits, and basta.
Step 5 Next, I will choose a suitable soundtrack for my video (preferably without lyrics) and upload it.
By Monday 25th, I will have done and I will add soundtrack and then review it.
Step 6 Finally, I will watch my video many times and revise it, make a few slight changes and then create it.
Tuesday 26th May.
Step 7 Save it to student storage, or try to upload it to YouTube (probably won’t work)
Monday, 1st June, I will have it done and ready to upload.

My Poem

Despite having uploaded a variety of different poems, I will continue to write some more poems. Originally I had in mind to use the poem "Ghazzah", but I decided against it, being inappropriate for multimedia. I prefer writing poems with a regular rhyme scheme, but I think that it is too old-fashioned for Multimedia Poetry, which is very flashy and a modern way of interpreting poetry. I will therefore write a new poem that will suit the project more. It will be the SHIT!
