POEM STARTER
Submitted by Maranda Quinn
Write a poem from the perspective of someone who obviously hates — or is just extremely bad at — poetry.
Try to consider why someone may feel pressured to write a poem. Love? A school project?
What’s The Point
The dark, frigid waters
Are waters dark and frigid.
They’re cold, making
Them never warm.
It’s that way because….
Of something.
Since I was a whippersnapper
Ive known where I’m from.
That’s enough for me.
I mean, why do I have to express
Myself in this manner? It feels
Like I’m just making incomplete
Sentences to unclearly
Portray how I’m feeling.
Let’s be honest: most poetry
We call good would probably
Have been better written
With longer exposition.
