Ten minute limit.

Here is the challenge: In the space of 10 minutes, create a vibrant, descriptive paragraph or poem about a location or activity, but do not directly name it.

 

Click to reveal.. (Drowning in Egyptian Thread)
Kicking, turning, ever stirring

Drowning in Egyptian thread.

Freezing, burning, never pleasing

Dripping sweat off my forehead.

 

Tangled, ensnared, ever corralled

Wishing I could only leave.

Drifting, sinking, never leaving

Monsters haunt my visions here.

 

Retiring, relaxing, ev’r waxing

Darkness creeps into my head.

Slipping, crashing, never blinking

I lay down into repose.

Damn.


Orange has almost no perfect rhymes. The only word in the 20-volume historical Oxford English Dictionary that rhymes with orange is sporange, a very rare alternative form of sporangium (a botanical term for a part of a fern or similar plant) 1

Edit: And, for once I'm glad I was sniped by Alorael, who turned the conversation to the topic I was about to force on you all.
