How to Speak in Iambic Pentameter in 5 Easy Steps

1) Go for a 3.5 mile run on a hot summer day.
2) As soon as you get home, pant: "Get me to a shower!"
3) Run down the stairs to your shower
4) Turn on the coldest water possible, and
5) As it pours out of the fixture, let out a cold sigh of relief and begin to let your joy and thankfulness for the cold, cold water come out in the most epic language possible-it'll sound like Iambic Pentameter-results guaranteed! If it doesn't work-sue me.

It's the way Shakespeare was meant to be recited. :)
