Lab creations...
Ok I know it took a minute to get them here, but I am so grateful for them...(see list in the post below!! lol)
This post is from a writing exercise....We were given several similies and told to write 3 for each.
As dark as...
Her memories were as dark as the bedroom's blackness that he crept through at night
That mole on his chin was as dark as the canals of gaping nostrils exhaling something short of sulphuric acid
As silent as...
As he hugged her, she remained as limp and silent as her childhood ragdolls-loved, abused and forgotten
With eyes wide open, her tears fell as silent as an angel's kiss
Underneath vast night skies stars danced as silent as the wishes mouthed in goodnight prayers
As tired as...
Finally home, exhaling deeply she fell into her rocker as tired as those who'd walked the journey before her
Fuming, she was waiting for his ass again--hell, she was as tired as a hooker working overtime on a four day weekend--and he knew it....she shifted into drive and slammed the gas
As tearful as...
Upon hearing the news, pain blinked from her eyes as tearful as seasonal monsoons unleashed from darkened skies
Feeling her hand clasp around his finger for the first time, he was as tearful as the infant he was holding
As beaten as...
The leaning house was as broken and beaten as the children who had lived there--and whose ghosts still do
Fingertips and knuckles worn down, strong sinews holding bones together with amazing agility in hands as beaten as the work that lived her
As homeless as....
In this nauseating comfortable place, she felt as homeless as the last time she sat there-no one believing her
A writer's sporatic thoughts frienzied in between spaces of grey matter, words as homeless as the discombobulated stack of notes and napkins in a poet's bag
As vicious as...
She became undone, sanity slowing fading, broken-hearted she became as vicious as the man who had cut down her struggling spirit
She couldnt accept her own mistakes so to deflect-she became as vicious as the rumor's in a high school locker room
