POEM STARTER

‘Earthquakes no longer feel so foreign to my body.’

Write a poem that begins with this line. Is it literal or metaphorical?

Dead Ends

Earthquakes no longer feel so foreign to my body

Cast to the side once again

Like an old toy or a forgotten favourite hobby

Was a friend but now a pain


Back when our bond could beat all odds

The comic and the muscle

Unlikely duo who were two peas in a pod

Torn apart in a tussle


Our paths drifted off down two different directions

You treaded along with fake friends

Mine was a tedious circular trip facing repeated lessons

Maybe one day I’ll leave my dead end
