POEM STARTER
Write a poem that centers around the question: Why do some seek out blood and others seek to heal?
Blood (TW violence)
The blood on the walls
Where I sing haunting melodies
The Blood on the floor
Where I smear my tears
The blood on my hands
From your gushing wound
And I can’t help but want more
The blood on the walls
In merely paint swatches
And the floor is merely food dye
The blood on my hands
Is from my scraped knee
And I need to get it stitched up
The blood in my body
Oozes out with injury
Driving me
Mad mad mad
The blood in my body
Courses theough my veins
Keeping me from going
mad mad mad
The blood on your body
From where I hit you just to hard
The puddle under your head
Gushing oozing
The metallic smell filling the room
And I want
more more more
The blood on my body
From where you hit just too hard
A puddle under my head
Throbbing pulsating
The metallic smell overcoming me
And I can’t keep my eyes open any
more more more
