Each step I take, I feel pressure on my soul. All I can do is support the my person who bought me. Beneath me I feel the earth, I am used up as a cushion between my owner and the pavement beneath me. All I can do is support my owner. Up and down, in a circular motion. All I can do...
I absorb the shock from the pavement which runs throughout my whole body. I am being bombarded by rain. It is below freezing temperature. It feels like I am being attacked by coins. My body becomes stiff.
There are other days where I endure the summer heat of Los Angeles. The pavement is scorching hot. It feels like I am being melted by the heat and friction between me and my owner.
All the suffering I have to endure,and what do I get as a result of my hard work? I get washed.
Knowing I have done my job, getting used up to all of my possible potential.
Getting beat up, thrown, washed, getting bitten by dogs, and running through all the seasons of the year. I know I have done my job. Maybe if I am good enough and be taken care of well, I may be able to last a little longer.
very good personification essay! i liked how you described yourself very deeply in a sense where i can identify what you are without reading the tittle. if i could switch something around i would switch the "me" with "i". so it reads, "the heat and friction between my owner and i" other than that everything is perfect. once again, nice job!
ReplyDeleteI truly do like how you wrote your personification. You were very expressive and showed emotions towards how you feel of being what you are. I know your a runner and I can see you enjoy running track and cross. Showing difficulties, ups and downs. Good job! I really liked it!
ReplyDeletehaha.This was a funny personification i like the way that you came up with a idea of being a shoe. especially when you said "The pavement is scorching hot. It feels like I am being melted by the heat and friction between me and my owner." I agree because it's true and i bet that is how my feet feel as well when i press against the pavement with every step i take. great one!
ReplyDeleteI loved your personification and how you didn't use your words as a cliche. Your writing makes people read and make them feel enthusiastic. My favorite part of your piece is when how you start. "Each step I take, I feel pressure on my soul".
