POEM STARTER
Inspired by Robin Marlowe
Write a poem that contains a volta before the final line.
A volta is a twist, normally at the end of a sonnet. Rather than a plot twist, this is normally a change of ideas, an inversion of the main theme, or a change of heart about an opinion.
I Worked Out Today-Volta
The salt dripped from my forehead
Into my eyes and stung
Like bullet ants
And my stomach was devoid
Of anything but acid
Eating itself, twisting
An ourboros cyclone
Rejoice! At the pain
Because that means today
I’ll eat like a king
And my sweat becomes like rain
Yes it all hurt,
Twisted and it stung
But I worked hard to feel this pain
And that jsut means I won
