Well, that depends. It's got good meter and it flows.
It's very distasteful as far as most poetry goes, but it could structurally be consider poetic.
(damn, where's Rozard's rolling icon when you need it!)
The phrase certainly does have good structure and meter, the music is... another story
I posted a 'transcript' from its' 'highlight' recently, and it sounded like this:

I hope to god that's not good structure

On the other hand, perhaps there's cause to bring in this little music piece considering Flint's reference to other free-style... since it is, indeed, a 10-minute live on-stage improv piece; and good old Krim has a couple dozen CD's worth of this spontaneous, non-prepared, free-style music.
I think people are forgetting instrumental improv
That sort of makes me sad considering it's the sort of musical energy I look for, thus my attachment to certain types of music.
Oh, also, my favorite 'free style rap' is Captain Beefheart's 'Orange Claw Hammer', hailing all the way back to 1969. An emotional, spontaneous take on a 'seaman shanty', made up and recorded with a portable recorder as the great Cap'n walked through the bush, making it to the album unaltered; but I don't refer to it so much as music, but poetry, even if it's a lot more melodic than most rap.
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…
