An Epic Fail Poem

So, I came across my scratch of the poem I wrote during our press conference held last month. When I read it again, my mind began having it's own battle. One side of my brain says, "it's so good! Why didn't it win?" Another side of my brain said, "It's ugly. It deserves to lose. *evil laugh*" In any way, I felt that the whole world crushed when I was not one of the top 10, but now, I have come to realize that it's not only me who writes poems. Other writers are far more imaginative than I am. I'm just a writer from the waste land of broken dreams. But hey, I write, no one can take that away from me.

So going back to the poem, the task that we did was a Villanelle. I know that's the same format which made me win last year's press conference. Wikipedia cannot specifically define what villanelle is, but he can tell the format.

So, here is my epic fail poem. If you are keen with the poem, then you might get the format of the poem.


To the Unborn


I haven't even heard him sing
nor talk nor walk independently
he lost his life from the beginning.

His father left this poor young thing
his mother was lost, doing things foolishly
I haven't even heard him sing.

To the witch he went, she's pretty much regretting
the witch cried out, and took him out carelessly
he lost his life from the beginning.

He hasn't even seen the world rejoicing
he hasn't felt the love of a family
I haven't even heard him sing.

We all need to stop this event from happening
he, and all the young souls need to live happily
he lost his life from the beginning.

Don't kill them while they're inside agrowing
they need to experience living freely
I haven't even heard him sing
he lost his life from the beginning.


I know it sucks. Haha. But I did my best, so I still consider it a work of art. So, what'd you think?
