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.
Who Cares For The Therapist?
Can a therapist be helped?
Are they so professional
That their self awareness has grown too tall
Are all therapists “good people?”
Are they all helpful?
Does being in a helping profession penalize them from ever being deemed as a selfish?
Are therapists exempt from being selfish?
Does the therapist ever get tired of listening?
Long venting sessions and daily affirmations.
Are they tired of encouraging?
Who encourages the therapists?
Are they always happy and optimistic?
Do they always lend hope and never borrow?
Is their world painted like a rainbow
Always sunny and no chance of pain?
Can a therapist help themselves?
Must their cup never be empty?
That can’t be true..
Because why then would they continue?
