POEM STARTER
Write a poem about the theme of deal breakers.
Red Flag
Oh my,
Oh why
Can’t I
Find someone
Who is it
A walking,
Talking
Red flag?
Am I just
A girl who must
Never spot her white dove,
Her true love,
And instead be met
With yet
Another crow,
Black as coal?
He’s cute,
But I swear on my life,
He’s just a
Player.
Red flag.
He’s funny,
But I swear on my life,
He takes his “joking”
Too damn far.
Red flag.
He’s confident,
But I swear on my life,
He gets
Mean
When he gets
Cocky.
Red flag.
He’s smart,
But I swear on my life,
He uses his intelligence
For no good.
Red flag.
When on earth
Will I find a man
Who’s worth
His word?
Maybe ever,
And that’s a sad fact,
But I won’t give in and settle
For a man who acts like that.
