POEM STARTER
Write a poem which uses the scenario of being a fly on the wall.
To be a fly on the wall is to witness something private. Think of a situation in which this eavesdropping would be interesting, and write a poem based on your thoughts.
Wynd
The fools
They thought I was still listening to Darklands
But as was my custom
The melancholic beauty of Jesus and Mary
Played at a whisper
I had to hear the rest
They’d left their loot under a tree
Somewhere no wandering eye could see
Except for me
I sat in glee
They were telling me and only me you see
Down the river
Over the bridge
About 3 fields in
And over a ridge
And there it would be
A solution to all my problems
And end to all my woes
Couldn’t work out
Why though
For a bag of cash
you need to leave airholes
