POEM STARTER
Submitted by Benjamin Linus
Create a poem around the theme of sonder.
Sonder is the realisation that everyone is living their own complex lives even if you aren’t aware of them.
There Is A Man Sleeping In My Son’s Bed
There is a man sleeping in my son’s bed
Dark hairy legs hanging off the bed
Where’s the crib?
There is a man sleeping in my son’s bed
Sharp jawline and morning stubble
Where’s the toy razor and bubble bath?
There is a man sleeping in my son’s bed
Muscled arms crossed over his head
Where’s the baby fat?
There is a man sleeping in my son’s bed
“Good Morning, mom,” he says, his voice squeaks with puberty
Where did the time go?
