Bemoaning Similes & Metaphors
(the lack thereof )
I cannot think in similes or metaphors.
I can, but it’s
An artifice.
A gift
I’ve not been left with.
Of course,
I’ve got Thesaurus –
My old pal -
To push me
In the simile
Direction.
Those
Whose
Aptitude’s
To see,
Their inner eye
Comparing parallels unconsciously –
A gift of gene and DNA –
Overwhelm me.
While I moan about my lack,
They sit with throne and luck
Expressing with an ease,
Anything they ****** well please
In metaphors and similes
I lie in bed,
This running through my head.
That’s why it’s here.

Talking empty words
Speaking to appease
Like life is some sort of show
Why isn’t this heresy?
Can’t we speak freely?
Ill have you know
Your thoughts
Are much better than something not.
When did the words lose their respect?
why do we have to fret
To speak our own
Words?
Sincerely,
The boy who regularly does not
