The "Poet" As An Observer: The Mall Metaphors
[Sidebar: This past weekend I took part in an intensive writing seminar at BCC. Over the course of the weekend, I wrote four different pieces - each in about ten minutes. They've been edited (since I can't not edit) but the content is true to my in-the-moment inspiration. Recently, this blog has been dedicated to my lengthy Bachelorette recaps, so I'm happy to post something new. I hope you especially get a kick out of my poetry attempts.]
The Mall Metaphors
He glides among pyramids
He saunters around the pillars of the day
He smells of Gucci, and a lunch hour Chardonnay
He can fold a V-neck tee
As lovely as a wave folds up onto the sand
He can get you a key to the dressing room
As fast as a cougar runs on arid land
His name is Bo.
His code is minimum wage.
Welcome to the Gap, How can he help you today?

my only comment that you need to spell his name, Beau, and not Bo.
Depending on what you are going for. Beau=pretentious. Bo=hick from Kentucky.
