A Collection

30/30 use ten metaphors to make a poem

Staring off, 

a million miles away

Figuring, 

when to step up to the plate;

How to go back to the drawing board.

Brain storming clutter the space

Chalk to the right

Eraser to the left.

Thoughts play call and response,

in my head

Quiet

I examine the board

"This place is a zoo!"

"Cut me some slack!"

Add with the right

Subtract with the left

They say, 

out on the horizon

you've missed the boat.

Erase all, 

start with a clean slate.

''Put the chalk down,

you're a day late

dollar short"

"I can always rework"

'You're building castles in

the air"

"No, you're splitting hairs"

"You're not seeing the big picture,

my salad days await"
