Lies, lies and more lies
For today’s poetry warm up you have permission to lie :-) You can make each line a different lie, or every line about the same lie.
Here’s an example from Kenneth Koch’s class:
I am grass as green as can be.From Wishes, Lies, and Dreams: Teaching children to write poetry by Kenneth Koch.
I am in a tree on a leaf.
I am in New York on a flying blueberry.
Mud is pretty.
Rain is ugly.Marion Mackles
