LAST FRIDAY 1 Alliteration
Frankly, it can’t get any freakier than last Friday. Last FridayFranchesca faked to fly on her foul bare feet. With no surprise, Franchesca ended up finally falling face first to the floor. The fall was so frightful, everyone stopped in fear to ask how she feels. Frankly, it can’t get any freakier than last Friday. Last Fridayall my friends eat their food in french class with mr. fecker frankie drop his fries as he was feeling the frizz on fiorella's hair after the female intense catfight between her and francisa finally ended it was the most fearful fight that finished as a draw and with broken fingernails happy freaky friday to all my friends and not to my foes. 2
Little Suzy’s
Leaf
Assonance
Little Suzy was reading her book: The kingdom and Magic of the Cheap Little Suzy went to play outside in the rain, in only her bare feet. NOW THAT REEKED! I asked little Suzy what she was doing outside in only her bare feet. she was planting just a single leaf. I wondered, but yet I decided not to ask. “Little Suzy!� I screamed! It was dinner. she never left. She waited for her leaf to grow to a complete. Little Suzy got soil inside her feet and never planted another leaf
5 days a week 8 hours a day Onomatopoeia
Sitting, blah-blah-HE SAID WHAT ABOUT ME! Laughing, ha-ha-Thats not funny.. 1st period bell, aw-aw-walk me to class? Running, wheeze-wheeze-late.
A+
Playing with pen, tap-tap-falls. Packing up, zip-zip-broken. Running, wheeze, wheeze, queezy. Waiting in line, yum-yum-NO MORE TACOS?
Acting, oh- ow-ow that one actually hurt!! On my laptop, click-scroll-NO WIFI! On the phone, Do I have to go to track-aw man!
Can you see me?!
Personification
Don’t drop me! Don’t replace me! Get your eyes checked! You’re as blind as a bat! Ugh, get those fingerprints off me! Seriously, you can’t read that! Don’t just toss me into your purse like I’m a quarter! You left me at work! What if I left you with Jenny from Accounting! I’m sorry, please don’t replace me!
Grandpa’s Face
Imagery
I go to see Grandpa I see his wrinkly face I go to see Grandpa I feel his moisturized face I go to see Grandpa I hear him ask me for his wrinkle cream I go to see Grandpa A taste his moisturizer as I kiss his cheek I go to see Grandpa I smell his citrus wrinkle cream I go to see Grandpa He hugs me
BLACK OUT.
Rhyme
At school, a basic day, doing some writing Finishing at home; blackout, no lighting Writing about a friend Until the bell, it rang; class came to an end Breaking rules; texting and using slang Put my phone on loud, Oops! My phone rang Back at home And yet, I’m still on my phone Paper is due, fourth period tomorrow I’ll regret it, I know, I’ll be in sorrow Very hungry; looking for a snack Hummus and Chips, how about a drink? I ate both and it ended up in the sink.
Curly Hair
I struggle to ponytail it Like the training for the Olympics I struggle to comb it Like finding your way through the Amazon I struggle to wash it Like cleaning a stack of hay I struggle to iron it Like taming a tiger I struggle to sleep with it Like feathers running down your neck Simile
Salsa
Same concept of a taco Except this is like travel size. A fiesta in my mouth Even though I do, I’m not allowed to eat it on the couch. Laboratory made? Processed onion? You eat this with chips? It’s a shame for that to be the #1 dip. Fresh cilantro Organic tomatoes Discovered this brand in Rio It’s where I fell in love with Torsido TONE
The Dress
Nervous vs. Confident
Does this make me look fat? What if he thinks it’s slutty? Can I stay here in bed? What if I’m awkward? Does he even like me? Should I change? I look so skinny! He’s gonna think I’m so hot! I never gonna leave the party! I’m good at that on the-moment convo! He def likes me! I never want to change! Mood
M AMI Living in the 3-oh-five Walking down Lincoln Road Shop until I drop Flo-Rida, Pitbull, they both sing pop 90 degrees, Rain, or clouds everywhere The weather is never not changing Always checking the weather Never seen anyone here wear leather Little Haiti,Wynwood, South Beach All the arts Their always within a reach
Homework
The bus took me 10 hours to get home! My backpack literally weighs 2 tons! I have the biggest test of my life tomorrow! My future decided on this math test! My notes are not even close to beneficial! My spiral is never ending! School is useless! School won’t reflect on anything in adulthood! I hate everything right now! I wanna sleep forever!
Hyperbole
Sonnet 1
Don’t thou ever feel like an old bag Wrinkled, Saggy, so light soaring through the air Are thou underground none to hear you nag Thou spark ignites like a glistening flare Thou are not devoid of space that is waste Thy future cannot be told on this day Greatness is something thou will often taste Storms may come and rain but rainbows will stay Roads lead to doors that open new portals Thy heart will gleam like pyrotechnics Explosions in the sky like immortals Stopwatch goes off my heart boom boom boom ticks Thou spirit is sparkling like a hidden gem The world will know thee and awaken
