Pressure

This is a response to a poem by Dilpreet Randhawa (a freshman) on his blog, reachingforglory.blogspot.com. I don't know; it's just a free form poem that I thought might sound kind of neat.

Weak outer shell

Ruptured

Inner strength

Revealed

Character, nature

Hardened or broken

Molding diamonds

Releasing a flood of greater potency

Revealing the best or the worst

Pressure

  1. Hey Jacob...
    I couldn't find the poem on Dilpreet's blog that you responded to, but I liked your poem. I actually wouldn't really connect it to pressure if you hadn't named it pressure, but since you did I see how under pressure those things could happen. Nice originality too.

  2. Jacob that was a very cool form, the flow and pattern of the poem helped me to be able to see what you were talking about and really made an impact on your writing. Nice job!
