For this assignment, I once again used the Fuel quote “All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade away”. First, I reworded the quote as many times as possible, dabbling with word play to see the affect this sentence has when even one word changes. Here’s what I came up with:
All that glistens on this globe is sure to glide away.
All that gleams within humanity certainly fades away.
Everything shining in this earth loses its color.
Each glistening, gleaming, shining, shimmering, shocking, thing in this world surely fades away.
Next, I added descriptive clauses to see what kind of analogies I could come up with. I ended up with:
All that glistens on this globe is sure to glide away, like golden arrows whistling through the dainty clear air.
All that gleams with humanity certainly fades away, like a team of bustling profanity settling and then suddenly stirred by a new innovation.
Everything that shines in this earth loses its color, like a fading, hazy, blurred silver spoon reflecting nothing of real consistency.
Each glistening, gleaming, shining, shimmering, shocking thing in this world surely fades away, like some flowering, reaming, silkily soaring- and suddenly! - Dreary dream.
