POEM STARTER
Write a free verse poem from the voice of someone who feels resentful.
Free verse poetry does not have a structured rhyme scheme, can have lines of irregular length, and does not have to keep to a regular meter.
The Paver
They live to ignore me
But I will have the last word
The word that leads half the world
That paves the path to the road they burned
I will arrive
And take what’s mine
What was so unfair
Now I will bring dispair
This tilt of a world that shines
Will no longer be so blind
I will rise
As others fall
Taking the ability to capture them all
Those who have not listened
Those who have tried to make their own decisions
My leadership will last
And I will not forgive those who have wronged me in the past
