They misunderstand, judge and don't look on,
To see the real truth, reality, ME.
Why don't they see: my sanity has gone,
Sometimes I feel as if none will agree.
Settling down will be best for me and HER,
Is life not mine to gain rights to decide?
What else must ruin, destroy and occur,
For how much longer will I have to hide.
She says she's the idol of style and class,
He claims to always be 'at the movies'.
All I'll be needing is my world of glass,
No love, no freedom or unheard stories,
It's now me against the world; all can see,
Now, forever: my glass menagerie.

ReplyDeleteWell, this is great. Well done!
ReplyDeleteAs for the iambs, you have managed a perfect iambic pentameter in the following lines:
4, 6, 8 and 11
Lots of the other lines are VERY close, but just not quite there.
Don't be disheartened though, it really is a great poem, which encapsulates this complex character. It's just these horrid IAMBS which are still causing your trouble...
thanks sir :)
