POEM STARTER
Write a poem casually and nonchalantly reflecting on a hugely important event.
What kind of language could portray this tone even when the content is important?
The day after she died
The day after she died,
I went to visit a wax museum.
I never wept, never cried,
Just enjoyed my freedom.
The day after she died,
I didn’t attend the funeral.
I sat on the curb outside
And smoked another Marlboro.
The day after she died,
My daughter asked where mom went.
I could only sigh
And tell her we’d get a replacement.
