Welcome to the Kenwood English IV Poetry Blog!

Students from Kenwood's Honors English IV classes have written poems inspired by the poems, poets and poetic forms that they've studied during this term's poetry unit. Some students wrote Ballads and Sonnets while others responded to the work of poets like e.e. cummings, Sylvia Plath and Rainer Marie Rilke. Many poems are profound, heartfelt and deeply insightful. Others are fun and lighthearted. But, all of the poems illustrate the students understanding and appreciation of the genre of poetry. We invite you to read this work and offer your comments. Thank you.

Werewolf

Inspired by The Panther by Rainer Maria Rilke
By Jeanná Cross

Trapped inside and waiting to be released
When the full moon rises, emerges the beast.
Ultimate freedom is what it dreams
But human inchamberment it waits, until the time cease
Hating every moment inside this manifestation
Feeling devastation,
Until the awakening, that’s destined
The moon rose freedom! Finally
But only ephemerally
