While reading Frankenstein, I found myself unexpectedly relating to it. I believe that the characters of Frankenstein and the creature paralleled one another, revealing the idea of Shelley that everyone has a monster within them. My thoughts so easily form into poetry; this was one of my poems that I came up with as a reading response.
My blood runs thick
black
emotionless
for those whose souls I've wronged
angry thoughts harbored
in an unstable mind
searching for the right words
or time
or place
or space
to spew this venom
so thick
so strong
threatening
behind cringed teeth
so much hurt
so many insecurities
masked by pride
the size of Mars
relentless and hot
yet cold with regrets
unleashing this hideous Monster
I've so often called myself

How cool! You wrote a poem as a response. I like the structure of it; the placement of words in each line accentuates the emotions. Even though the tone is rather depressing, I can easily relate it to my personal experience as well.

Very nice poem! While i was reading the poem one thing caught my eye. The white space where each lines end almost forms a valley. I'm not sure if you did this on purpose or if it just turned out that way but very cool either way. Great Job!!!
