The Funny Kerr

So, I wrote this long poem last year, 2020 for an annual international poetry contest but I didn't got a reply so I assumed my poetry piece didn't won but I'm thankful I got to participate there. Given that I've started writing poems consistently at the last months of 2019, I know I lack a lot in terms of writing. Sometimes, my thoughts were a total chaos, too. And still now, I'm working on writing more and more poems, and still trying to learn different styles of writing one. Morever, I just want to share my experiences with depression, too through my poems as I don't want to create a novel of how dramatic and tragic my life was. Maybe, writing poems is my channel where I can clearly express my thoughts about life -my personal life.

Going back to the topic, this poem I was talking about was supposedly centered on the Covid-19 pandemic. What I did was incorporate all the scenarios during the lockdown due to covid-19 starting from March 2020. Instead of looking on the negative sides, I tried to balance the elements in my poem by answering how people cope up with the sudden lockdown, how they fight boredom, anxiety, fears, and negativities along with the pandemic and lockdowns.

It was supposed to be humorous which I don't think what I did was. 😂 Well, I don't know, maybe I will depend on the readers regarding with that. What I wrote is a poem and a story during the pandemic lockdown, showing five characters with different personalities and lifestyles of living in the midst of lockdown. It was entitled "The Funny Kerr", maybe Kerr is funny but she was more than being funny lol.
