The Perfect Metaphor

Searching for the perfect metaphor

is a man lost at sea,


a disappeared house key,


a heartbroken woman,


a triangle player in a school band.


 


The perfect metaphor


is not a Picasso,


or a Michelangelo,


or an opera performer singing.


 


2004 Gustavo White

Well written Gustavo.
