POEM STARTER

In a poem, write about a love triangle between three people.

Will you write from each person's perspective with unique voices, or omnisciently tell the whole story?

A Little Complicated

I don’t know why we brought him here

It was just supposed to be me and her

Not some other guy

Some guy who just awkwardly stares


Who just laughs randomly

Who is just so loud for no reason

Who just wants to say “bro”

Lightly punch me and make such a stupid


Ridiculous, childish, egregious, bizarre

Unnatural, disturbing, appalling, filthy

Cringey, frivolous, idiotic, hideous, atrocious

Mindless, putrid fucking smile on his face!


I don’t know why this guy stares at me

Why he’s so angry

He just looks so bothered

Specifically at me


What did I do, though?

I haven’t done anything to upset him

Or to make him look bad

This is frankly ridiculous


Unless he knows

He knows that I took the ranch

That he loves so much with his salad

But he doesn’t know that, right? Please?


I don’t know what’s wrong with these two

This one has been so aggravated

For no reason at all

He never gets this upset by anything before


Then there’s this one

Who looks so uncomfortable and stressed

Again, for no reason at all

He never gets this bothered by anything before


Was this wrong?

Was I wrong?

Wrong to go out with both of my boyfriends?

No, they’ll get along, maybe they will be super best friends from this
