POEM STARTER
Submitted by Brittany Lawson
Write a poem about someone stuck in a cycle of self destruction. Just as they are about to exit the cycle or have a breakthrough, the poem starts back at the beginning.

Actually, I’ll take a sip…
Mm the sip that delightfully burns,
The sip that ironically cures,
I use spirits to lift my spirits,
Until my body purges it and I replenish it,
This leads to solemn days of mascerades,
Letting my cheerful nature fool anyone close enough to sense danger,
Wait, who are you?
Your turning my world upside down,
A new light that won’t let me drown,
I can feel this new breathe bring life back into me,
It feels so good,
So new so true,
This is it!
Wait, where’d you go…
Actually, I’ll take a sip …
