POEM STARTER

Submitted by nlove

Write a poem based on the theme of illusions.

Whether this be something magical, deceptive, or imagined, keep illusions as your central theme.

trains

It’s funny how perceptive

Is often deceptive.

Life switches from track to track.

A mix tape.

Visions take shape.

Distortions paint the water

Empty promises.

Don’t bother.

Something beautiful

Is strangely grotesque.

A bushel of foxglove promising spring

However leads to endless winter.

It took too long.

The question begs,

Is that light at the end of the tunnel,

Or a train?
