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 Am I?
I am happy.
I am, I am, I am.
I am happy because.
Don’t I look happy?
If you tell me I should be happy,
Then I am.
If you tell me not to be sad,
I will never touch it.
I have seen what it has done to you.
Does it hurt to touch?
Flesh dried to husk and heart worm-eaten.
Still, it is mine.
My heart is mine and so is my sad.
I am happy because it is mine.
Am I not?
