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.
