POEM STARTER

Write a poem about the first time you did something.

New experiences are often thought-provoking. Try to stay away from obvious first times and go for something unusual.

First

To succeed is to stop taking

A bloodied knife

  sits within the ribs


Life is like your favorite drug

  I slowly drink

    the poison cup


A bloodied knife

  within the ribs

My first rescuing

    from this dying world


I slowly drink

  the poison cup

Shadows grab

  my broken hands


My first rescuing

  from this dying world

I saved myself

  before the others


Shadows grab

  my broken hands

Dry tears of sadness

  pour from above


I saved myself

  before the others

Are they sad I did it

  or sad

     I did it first?


To succeed is to stop taking
