POEM STARTER
Human souls are part of a pattern too large to see in each individual. Together, we form something greater than we can imagine.
Write a poem based on this idea. It can be loosely related, but should focus on the theme of individuals vs. togetherness.
The Great Breath
Breathe in… hold it, just a little longer, and release.
The pendulum swings again.
Escaping one moment of tension,
to sway through momentary freedom
just to end up in another place of tension.
The push and pull of the waves,
a shift in the breeze.
A great moving mass, carving out its path
But never wasting a speck of dust.
For there is no destruction,
Only recreation.
A reallocation of resources,
Momentarily free, before being pushed
Into another moment of tension.
