Poetry & Random Writing

2/1/19

Revisit & rewrite the two poems you wrote (Poems in the last section)

write them in 2nd person

use 2 metaphors in each

You are the uncontrollable force

existing in everyone's life.

You live in forms of the harsh sun and blustery winters

You are bliss and you are fear.

Constantly changing, you never remain constant.

You are the bodies of animals,

From the smallest bug to the biggest whale.

The entirety of the universe and cosmos,

You affect everything in life as we know it.

Having no reins, you are the raging horse,

Or the pull the tidal waves react to.

Showing your dangerous abilities and blissful promises,

You give the life that is known to everyone.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You are an individual.

You take form in the face of another.

Whether it is a parent, friend, lover, or enemy.

Or the fleeting spark between two strangers.

You may be pre-determined against or for someone.

You are the rolling of dice or the shuffling of cards,

As you never remain in one constant state.

You are the snowflake among a blizzard.

Everyone experiences you but not as another would,

Revealing your unique and short-lived life.
