POEM STARTER

Poison.

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

Poison Ivy

Your in my sight o poisonous one

Your leaves lure me towards you

You know discreetly what will happen when I touch you

But yet I know

since I learned

what would happen to me too


The rash you’d give to me would be a poison

A short yet powerful one

Something that would be troublesome for me in the short term hopefully not in the long term like for example how a mosquito bites


The beautiful name of you ivy makes me forget what you actually are

A little bit of you and then suddenly you could strangle me will all of your might


Your so individually alone and found so mysteriously

And your name is so bluntly known

Why do I want to touch you so badly

And see what happens to me later on


It may be a childhood dream

A strange one in fact

To give an excuse to the teacher

That I can’t come to class because I have a doctors note for receiving a poison ivy rash
