Oooh I really like this challenge! XoX And it´s something not poetry-related, so I might have a chance at it ^^' (I love poetry, don´t get me wrong, but I sure do suck at writing it...)

How did you even break this???

But the anchor holds us back
A man left his Icelandic home
Escaped to Denmark to freely roam
With hair braided red
He got hit on the head
With a crate lid slammed onto his dome

Fluent: :uk:
Fluent spoken, bad writing: :china:
Some knowledge: :france: :germany:
Odd word here and there: :japan:
