Midnight in the garden of good and evil
And the mountains echoed
Angela’s ashes
Left behind
Into thin air
One hundred years of solitude
Reflection
The type of poem I created is a spine poem created by the titles of books from different authors. Why I choose this poem style was because the idea of taking physical books and creating them into a poem just on the titles completely amazes me and is fascinating. The story that went behind this poem was I only had around 10 minutes to create a spine poem for my creative writing class and I took books that had cool titles and then rearranged them to become the poem which ended up taking a more somber tone.
My opinion on poetry before the unit was that I enjoyed to read it but never understood fully on how to write a poem. After the class I enjoy to write them and that they don’t need to be specific and can be about anything.
