WRITING OBSTACLE
Inspired by Amber A
Use the metaphor of a fuse being lit and its impending explosion to represent a mental eruption of a strong emotion.
Consider how you will develop this metaphor with strong visual and emotional representation.
Bomb
The fuse is lit,
A bomb soon to explode,
That’s what I am,
‘Cause you put me into
Kill mode.
I’m about to erupt
Into a fit of rage,
So unless you wanna die,
Get the hell out of my way!
I’m a bomb who had their fuse
Lit,
Ready to explode,
Get the hell away from me
Before you suffer the wrath
Of my rage.
All the rage I’ve
Bottled up
Over the years,
It’s coming out
In a fiery
Burst of emotion,
Like a bomb’s
Explosion.
