This is a poem I wrote just today, as an assignment in English class. We had to pick something we saw in the classroom and write about it, letting our minds wander. When we copied them down onto construction paper, I wrote the last word in different colors, with the letters trailing down the page. Anyways, here's a poem on my three favorite Sandman characters.

The Ankh

I stare at the ankh

the symbol worn by

ever cheery Death;

she who brings eternal sleep,

somewhat like her brother, Dream,

the Sandman,

the protagonist of my favorite

comic book

with its myriad of colors

putting into mind

the youngest Delirium.
