Addicted Poem by Sylvia Dise

Addicted

Rating: 3.0


I know this girl
Who always needs a pill
She doesn't move she always sits still
She walks around with her head held down
Never smiling there's always a frown
She's beautiful and bright
She needs to find the light
She's crazy and wild
Stop! You have a child
Go the other way
Today is the day
For you to say
This isn't me
I want to be free!

making a poem in mostly rhyming couplets i think hinders the poem's expression... the form needs more freedom, especially to fit with the theme about being 'free' which is the climactic exclamation at the end. i think you'll find rhyming, unless it is brilliant and unpredictable detracts from making as powerful a point as desired...but not bad...try rewriting it without end rhymes...
