The Follower ............... Metaphor (5.01)<br />
Everywhere I go<br />
There’s <strong>some</strong>thing trailing behind<br />
Following my every footstep<br />
It remains deep in my mind<br />
Every second every minute every hour<br />
Every moment of the day<br />
It follows me extra carefully<br />
As if I’m awaited prey<br />
Will it ever follow another<br />
Or cease to be seen or show<br />
It is a weight I am constantly pulling<br />
But it’s kind of sad <strong>you</strong> know<br />
Unlucky Worm ........... Personification (5.02)<br />
There once was a little worm<br />
Who wanted to eat a pickle<br />
So he started toward the store<br />
And brought along a nickel<br />
It would take weeks to get there<br />
But it would be worth the wait<br />
He had to make sure he hurried<br />
Before it was to late<br />
He finally got there after a long while<br />
Picked the perfect pickle and payed<br />
He had his pickle at last<br />
And knew his day was made<br />
As soon as he left the store<br />
A bird swooped down like a plane<br />
And snatched the pickle right out of his mouth<br />
And was never seen again<br />
