metaphor, smilie or personification in it? I am very bothered when i think
of all the bad things that i have done in my life.
Not least that time in the chemistry lab
when i held a pair of scissors by the blade
and played the handles
in the naked lilac flame of the Bunsen burner;
then called your name, and handed them over.
O the unrivalled stench of branded skin
as you slipped your thumb and middle finger in,
then couldn't shake off the two burning ring. Marked,
the doctor said, for eternity.
Don't believe me, please, if I say
that was just my butterfingered way, at thirteen,
of asking you to marry me.
PLEASE HELP ME!! ITS AN ESSAY DUE VERY SOON. I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP. THANKS.
This poem is called, 'I Am Very Bothered'
