Who's game for the challenge


CHALLENGE: A metaphoric view on/of life using everyday objects

THE CHALLENGE IS SIMPLE,
WRITE A POEM IN ANY FORM
USING EVERDAY OBJECTS/ THINGS
THAT YOU USE/EAT/SEE EVERYDAY
IN A METAPHORIC VIEW/OUTLOOK
OF/ON LIFE, THEY CAN BE POSITIVE,
NEGATIVE OR BOTH.

I HAVE REPOSTED AN EARLIER
POEM I WROTE AS AN EXAMPLE.

Enjoy your daily slice of life.

Take the daily bread of life you are given,
Sometimes you overtoast your slice -
and get burnt,
other times you use too much butter -
and people you hurt.

But if you do not like your given slice,
Take it back, change it for another,
this time scrape off the burnt bits -
and skip the butter.

See, we are all given,
the same slice of life,
how everything turns out -
Well, it depends on what you do with your slice.
