POEM STARTER

Write a poem that is grotesquely romantic.

This could mean a poem that’s overly lovey-dovey, one that has a romantic theme but grotesque imagery, or something else altogether.

Love's dark carnival




A heart, a ravaged, gilded cage,

Holds beauty born from shadowed rage.

A twisted rose, with thorns entwined,

A love that's fierce yet subtly unkind.


Pale moonbeams kiss a fractured face,

Where sorrow paints a haunting grace.

Each scar tells a story, a sign,

Of passions burned, a love divine.


Yet monstrous in its aching plea,

To bind two souls for eternity.

A grotesquerie, yet sweet and true,

A love that's distorted, just me and you.
