POEM STARTER
Write a poem about a lie that spirals out of control.
Consider the structures and devices you could use to show the repetition and amplification of the lie.
Well how did we get here?
Well how did we here?
Sobbing while you yell at me
Never give me a chance to explain it
I'm too out of breath anyways
Well I just wanted love
I told you I was seeing Eliza
And then I told you it was Rose
Maybe if you let me reasonably free
I wouldn't find it so easy to lie straight through my teeth
Maybe if I wasn't a fan of the thrill and feign freeness
I wouldn't find it so easy to lie straight through my teeth
Then I wanted more
He said "I am only yours"
But I wanted more
So I told him I wasn't seeing Charlotte
Who even is Ivy?
Maybe if I wasn't so desirable
I wouldn't have to lie through my teeth
Maybe if I wasn't a fan of loving people
I wouln't have to lie through my teeth
Oh, I'm so greedy
I just take all I can
And now I'm in my mother's car sobbing
She says she doesn't even know who I am
You only know the one guy
But I'm your little monster
Flowers wilt when I walk by
My throat hurts from screaming back
