Poem Analysis: Bored
Bored
(A sonnet written in Shakespearean style)

This is the dumbest thing I ever did.
I've never been so bored in my life.
This makes me feel like a little kid,
Now I’m staring at a kitchen knife.

I hear the T.V. in the living room.
I wish I was alone in my shop.
The wind outside is making a big boom,
My mom is acting like a scary cop.

There is not much more i have to say.
I am beginning to go insane,
If only I could go outside and play.
My mom is talking about sugar cane.

This is so very very tiring,
I would rather walk around and sing.

    The air is tainted with unnatural fumes of grease, wood, and burnt electrical tape. Oil slicks stain the floor. Thick wooden shelves sag unnervingly close to buckling under the weight of old house paint and power tools. A workbench lies buried beneath papers, rulers, cans, and metal shards. An uncomfortable growl pours from the water heater. Most people wouldn’t describe my grimy garage as pleasant, but I love spending my free time here. It’s where I built a 2 ft trebuchet in sixth grade, a 4 ft trebuchet in seventh grade, and plan to build an 8 ft trebuchet this winter break. It’s where I built a battlebot and slapped an Arduino microcontroller on top to give it intelligence. Ever since I sat watching jets shake…

    Roadblocks: Poem Analysis

    • 500 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Many writers on their venture to becoming great, are faced with roadblocks. I too feel those stresses. When sitting down to begin a story, novel, or poem we all strive to be different. But as Baldwin explains, "there is no original thought, because we all humans think and feel has been thought and felt so many times before, by so many generations." This in itself makes starting writing a very daunting task. Not to mention the sea of fellow authors you are competing with for limited shelf space. A trip to a jam packed bookstore reiterates this feeling instantaneously. Really, what sets the writer apart is the original perspective and finding out what shape to give it to really hold the readers attention. This can all be achieved through the power in…

    The works we studied within Creative Writing were all helpful in creating my own works to submit to the class. Throughout all of the reading, many of the works inspired me in different ways, whether it was short story plot ideas or word usage in the poems. While crafting my work for the final portfolio, I reviewed many of the poems from our poetry packet in an effort to find inspiration and to create new interesting images. I took the most inspiration for my formal poem, which I found most difficult to write. One of the poems that was most useful to me was Jilly Dybka’s “Memphis, 1976.” Dybka’s poem follows the sestina form; I also wrote my last poem in this form, so it helped to follow the form by looking at her poem as an example. Dybka’s…

At first, it sneaks up on you quietly, then the storm intensifies, rushing through cities, towns, or whatever is in its path, leaving behind devastation and desolation. That sense of desolation is what I fear the most, and that’s what it feels like now.…
