student handout Sample Bio-Similes I am like a toothbrush. I am like the bottom of the ladder. People use me then they put me down. I never get a hand But I’ll always get the boot. I am like a stroke. You don’t even know I’m here I am like a tectonic plate Waiting to attack. I do move very slowly But I will change your world. My teacher is like bagpipes. Noisy as anything I am like a knight of the olden days Stuff sticking out in unusual places I have a code Scary and strange I do my duty But if you listen closely I protect Pure music. I serve I don’t belong in this world. I am like a jack-in-the-box. Just one more crank I am a glass slipper And I’m bounced out of here I will promise you everything Out of the comfortable I will make you feel pretty Into the fear I will take you to the ball Just one more crank And let you walk all over me And you’ll turn me loose But remember Into the high school I break easily. And its abuse Just one more crank Of this dumb life song And this baby box school Will be long gone Just one more crank Enough time to learn That I don’t much like it When my crank gets turned. 64
