POEM STARTER

Poison.

Write a descriptive poem about something poisonous, and its effect on its target. This could be literal or metaphorical.

Erasure

you forced your way into my mind.

Seeped into my vains and tainted my blood.

A sensation both deadly and kind.

A tide that gently rises then builds into a flood.

You whispered in my ear

promises you never intended to keep.

You warmed me with fire and blanketed me with fear,

and put all my strident thoughts to sleep.

So i lie still as your poison claims me.

Az it erases and rewrites.

A potent spell that shapes and renames me,

and burns away all the blinking warning lights.
