POEM STARTER

Write a poem using multiple rhetorical questions, where the narrator is questioning their own judgement or viewpoint.

You could use the questions to make the reader think, or to show how doubtful the narrator is of their own stance.

Since when did this dark edifice become ubiquitous?

Since when did truth become a tool with which to twist and disabuse?

Must it take a million deaths before they act with er?

Or am I wrong to think there’s more to loathe than what they claim is there?

Is it them, or is it me? Who decides reality?

You write really well and have the ability to give feedback, I also have one question what does “Must take a million deaths before they act with er” mean; or more specifically what does er mean in this context.

I’m just a regular person tryin’ to get by. I don’t know anything about writing, all I do is imitate what I see. 😐.
