POEM STARTER

Write a poem inspiring beauty from something very ordinary, like a cup of coffee or a pair of shoes.

Or it could be a boring activity like making breakfast; make it seem like the most magical experience!

Spider Boy

I didn’t mean to end your life

I was sitting there and I felt you on my neck

I was so disgusted

but still, I never meant to end your life

Your trace across the front of my collar bone

Your touch, gentle and delicate

I never meant to end your life

A snap reaction

A fist of violence

I never meant to end your life

Now you are curled up beside me breathlessly

You’re immobilized and immortal in your beauty

Love, I never meant to end your life.
