Author's Note
We're studying figurative language in my fifth grade ELA classes, and I let students have a go at using similes. I think Vincent did a great job.

Dear PD,
I think Vincent did a fabulous job with it. As a matter of fact I can totally relate to Vincent’s take on the matter.
Fabulous, just fabulous. H🌷

I'm glad you liked it. After I told him I liked it, he started saying "Yeah, I'm dangerous!" It seemed to make him feel powerful. In reality, he is a very sweet, doe-eyed, vulnerable boy whose mother died unexpectedly when he was eight. But he seemed to enjoy his temporary fantasy, so why not. All part of the power of writing.

That's a great statement. Reminded me of Jethro Tull's "Thick as a brick". Cool piece.

Glad you enjoyed it.
Off to read the lyrics to Thick as a Brick. Haven't thought about that song in a long time.

That's hilarious and perfectly childlike. Pure, unadulterated chaos energy. I love it.
