POEM STARTER
Write an Epode based on any theme you like.
An Epode is a style of poetry where each verse is two lines which differ in meter and structure, but the second line is always shorter than the first.
Calm
The class was loud
So was my head
It banged and banged
As if trained to play drums
That ruckus you play
Keeps you at bay
You music taste is angry and weary
Just like your family
Maybe it’s better to sit in the dark
It opens the mind to brand new thoughts
The vile that you spilled
Seeks you at will
Posioning your mind for fun
Telling you that you are “dumb”
While a common man
“accidentally “ hits you in the head with a can
And that’s when the banging starts
And hits me like a dart
The dark room waiting for you
Good thing your getting used to being so gloom
