Just Ask
CC BYNevermind, Scratch that.
Don't ask me what I think about the world.
I would go into thousands of words of dialouge just telling you how evil it is.
The world is cruel and unfair.
Only the rich and wealthy get to flourish and grow.
While the unfortunate have to make the rich's dream happen-
There I go.
On a useless tangent.
I'm nice I swear.
Sweetest person you'll ever meet,
I just don't get to express myself out loud.
So I do it in art and poems.
I need a beer.
Something wrong with this poem?

Your Poem's Voice
Mix of personal frustration and abstract social critique; leans autobiographical
Dense rapid-fire ideas: world criticism, wealth inequality, self-awareness, artistic expression
Predominantly negative (world evil, unfair, cruel) with brief self-defense attempts
Restless, urgent voice with self-interruptions and exclamatory interjections throughout
Approximately 13 lines; fits 7-15 range
Minimal figurative language; mostly direct declarative statements and plain language
Pure lyric internal monologue; confessional and introspective throughout
