WRITING OBSTACLE
Write a story or poem about finding your way that makes use of an extended metaphor.
An extended metaphor is one where you continue to use its imagery and associations beyond the first instance.
Voided Lines…
As moments of emotion
surpass reality.
We realize we’re all
just evaporated shells,
of our former selves;
come one come all to see...
Where sometimes life,
twists the fates.
Begrudgingly in forsake.
A cruel slice of entertainment,
for wandering eyes to awe.
Poor souls, begging for comfort.
In a world designed to see us fall...
It isn’t a pleasantry,
and certainly not a joke.
As our human counterparts
laugh and poke.
One persons dismay
is another’s intrigue.
One persons hope,
another’s disease...
