Metaphor Poem

Enemy

 

You are the gum under the desk

The yellow snow I fell in

 

You are the fat kid of my youth

The me that I hate looking back at and realizing how big I was

You are the Plaxico Burress

Goes to jail for shooting yourself, pathetic

You are the awkward silence

It came from being the annoying person that says excuse my French

 

You are the half an hour infomercial

Nobody’s eyes are on you

You are the pair of socks I don’t like to wear

You are the leftovers at dinner

I won’t want them again later

You are the Christmas gift that I always want to return

A week later that flat football we sadly had to use if we wanted to play

 

You are the tissue in which I blow my nose

The snot rocket of a lifetime

You are the toilet where I let out my waste

Smell like a taco after its been through the body

You are the trash bag with the hole in it

It is the mess of all messes

You are the dirty jock strap

 

You are the ashes after the fire burns out

The black that dulls my day to its end
