His appearance stirred up anger,
Seeds of hatred had been sewn.
Antipathy grew heavy,
I began tumbling,
From my throne.
Shockingly,
There I discovered,
His reflection,
Had been my own!
Word Count: 30 – Weekend Writing Prompt: Antipathy
30 words is tough, especially for a word like antipathy. I had never even heard of it until this prompt! I started digging through the internet to understand it’s meaning and—before I knew it—the morning was gone.
On another note, I thought this poem was the perfect opportunity to share something I made in school; in my first semester. The featured image is a composite piece I created for Intro to Visual Communication. Long story short, it’s supposed to represent hypocrisy. I think it also conveys the meaning of my poem, in a weird way.
Anyway, that’s about all for now. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed the poem and the piece. Love you all…
