A Thousand More Times

I talk in metaphors sometimes to obscure my subject. Honesty is a key part of art, but on the other hand, honesty can be defined differently. It just true to the writer and their experience. I try to write similarly to how my real self might reveal her thoughts. My goal with this poem was to tie all my thoughts into one central metaphor to make a cohesive narrative. I limited myself by not using any rhetorical questions (which I admittedly overuse). I hope you enjoy reading this!

Creativity to me means translating life into palatable and interesting words. I want to make something that is fitting, yet surprising.
