POEM STARTER

Write a poem, in any structure, about something that you find beautiful.

With freedom of structure, style, and rhythm, how will you use these elements to reflect the beauty you admire?

butterfly, sort of

Tiny traumas to the chest wall,

That’s what causes it-


So every

Time

You

Cough,

Or

Curse,

Your body remembers

when you forget.


We aren’t bothered

If the things

We do

Are

Detrimental,

We just have to see the

Smoke

Enter

The

Air

To Know

We

Can

Breathe.


Smoking might kill you

But it might show you you’re

Alive!


Tiny traumas,

Like the batting

Of

Butterfly

Wings

In your chest,

If you get enough,

It might feel like

A

Brick

To

The

Lungs.


Tiny traumas,

Like the

Butterfly

Effect-


I once knew a girl who plucked the wings from ladybirds for fun,


What happens to empty bodies?
