Week 2 Assignment: Inventory

For this Assignment we were asked to rewrite our on version of the poem "Inventory" by Gunter Eich. Below is my attempt.

This is my wool cap,

This is my jacket.

These are my fingerless gloves,

My imitation Chucks.

A black leather notebook,

A pen, laptop, and cord.

Each has its own pocket,

Inside my messenger bag.

The stories I construct,

Are contained within each holder,

Each a piece of me,

Hidden safely from view.

This is my bed,

This is my desk,

This is my couch,

My clothes stacked neat in a row,

This place is my shelter,

To rest and recover,

My single shelf lined,

With bottles filed with color,

The cuddly wolf stands at my door,

A silent guardian alone,

A picture of love,

Sits in a position of honor.

This is my phone,

This is my music,

These are my books,

This is my character.
