Prevailing / Free Verse Poem

Student will create a prevailing metaphor and supporting metaphors, and will later create a free-verse of their own with the prevailing metaphor as the title.  The poem will be at least 80 words, have no meter or rhyme, no linking verbs, and will use supporting metaphors to help convey a hidden message.  Consideration must be given to each word used, line breaks, punctuation, and formatting.  Do not center the lines and do not double-space except between stanzas.  Do not write a love poem.
