Here are some more examples of our poetry using the Slow Writing technique. Slow Writing uses a very strict writing structure, can you spot what these poems have in common?
The Flood by Dylan
Grabbing on, I hoped someone was out there.
I was petrified.
This was turture; I was determined to carry on.
Will this mayhemm ever stop?
Slowely my life ebbs away.
Hunger hits me as fast as lightning
The water clings on to my clothes as I try to shake it off
My desperation by Ollie
Clinging on for dear life,
Fear engulfed me,
I was heartbroken; I still carried on,
Is this to much for me to bare?
Slowly, my life ebbed away,
Starvation hit me like a wild bush fire,
The water clung onto me.
MAYHEM! by Ben
Breathing heavily, I wondered if the flod would ever end.
Everything was lost.
I screamed; no one heard.
Will I survive this terrifying mayhem?
Quickly the water drags me under the raft.
I hung onto the rope like a monkey on a tree.
The dirty, horrible water was slowly swallowing me.
