Class Poetry Exercise - 2/11

Here are some of my responses to our class workshop today. Apparently, I'm not very creative because this was very difficult...just give me an Excel spreadsheet to work on instead please.

1. Alliterations & Assonance

      Alliterations:
    - Striking sunset
    - Cauterized cannon
    - Rusted rose
    - Lonely lily
    - Weeping willow
    - Sturdy straw
    - Weathered wings in wild winds
    - Scourning sky
    - Explosion of emotion
    - Cornered chine
    - Leveled layers

      Assonances:
    - Eyes rise
    - Aching fixation
    - Disarm descent
    - Echoing gecko
    - Scouring coward
    - Core war

2. Metaphors for Life
Note: Some of these probably aren't metaphors...too literal.

   - Birth: Birth is the beginning.
   - Death: Death is the symbolic end of your journey.
   - Marriage: Marriage is a narrative.
   - Pregnancy: Pregnancy is a rollercoaster ride for the female body.
   - Failure: Knowing failure is knowing humility.
   - Success: Success is rising from the shadows of your previous falls.

3. Lyrics and Musicality

    Yeah...this probably isn't happening today...
