POEM STARTER
Write a poem that is grotesquely romantic.
This could mean a poem that’s overly lovey-dovey, one that has a romantic theme but grotesque imagery, or something else altogether.
I’d Rip My Heart
I’d rip my heart out for you,
Bleed over my pure cotton shawl
Just for the sake of love—
Veins and all.
I’d rip my precious thoughts
Like petals from a flower
And spur them to you—
Mindless power.
I’d rip my own skin
To stretch or thin
For the sake of your love—
A loving sin?
