LIMP PENIS

Folder: 
I COME FROM PHILADELPHIA

 

 

Pep rallies

that muster

as much

excitement

 

            as a

            limp penis

 

but that

is what

the school system

 

              is really

              all about

              anymore

 

just a little

         pretense

to keep everyone

            coming back

The shock value brings value

The Shock Value this work provides for me delivers both value and shock separately but at the same time. 

 

    • This piece doesn't hide behind abstractions.

 

  • The shock of the central metaphor drives me to confront the same frustration of unentertaining pep rallies for myself.

It is a blunt illustration for everyone.

The Power of Plainspoken Imagery

You’re welcome. It’s a bold piece, and the directness of the imagery really does sharpen the critique you’re making. I appreciated how the plainspoken approach cuts straight to the frustration you’re highlighting. Thanks again for sharing your work.
