POEM STARTER

Write a free verse poem from the voice of someone who feels resentful.

Free verse poetry does not have a structured rhyme scheme, can have lines of irregular length, and does not have to keep to a regular meter.

The Blue Sky Is Annoying

I had a good day, and I don’t like it


It feels weird

What am I supposed to do now? Try?

Lightheaded

I resent the blue sky

For showing me that there are reasons

To aim high

Look people in the eye

Not to cry

And that there are better things

To do than

Die


I hope this doesn’t last

And that this blip has almost passed


If you have to crane your neck

There is no comfort in being free

Sad is who I am

And all that I ever wish to be
