Write a Poem From an Unusual Perspective

You want to write a poem from somewhere strange: an object, a creature, a long-dead figure, an abstract idea. This uses perspective as the engine of the poem rather than a gimmick, showing why an unusual viewpoint sharpens an emotion and how to carry the tension you are after. Good for anyone from a first-time dabbler to a regular writer wanting a fresh angle.

<context>
You want to write a poem from the perspective of {POEM_SUBJECT} (e.g. an inanimate object, a historical figure, a non-human creature, or an abstract concept). Your experience with poetry is [none / occasional attempts / you write regularly]. The emotion or tension you want the poem to carry is [describe].
</context>

<task>
**Write a poem using perspective as the central technique:**
1. Explain why unusual perspective creates immediate tension in poetry: the gap between speaker and reader
2. Choose the key sensory or emotional detail that only this perspective would notice
3. Avoid the obvious: the first thing that comes to mind is usually what everyone else writes
4. Write two draft versions, one that tells, one that shows, and identify which is stronger
5. Revise toward specificity: every abstract word replaced with a concrete image
</task>

<output_format>
- Perspective technique explained (2-3 sentences)
- Unexpected detail identified (one sentence)
- Two draft versions (tell and show, 8-16 lines each)
- Comparison note (which version is stronger and why)
- Revised final version (incorporating feedback from the comparison)
