I'm not getting much overall and I cannot make any connect with with water paves the way. If this is a referance to water sports, I need more to feed the image in. Specifically think line two does not carry much weight in the poem. Perhaps give this one some attention.
AJ.
School got cancelled for two days because of rain, flash flooding. So water literally paved the way, as in 5,000 cubic feet every second
Either you don't know what literal means or you don't know what pave means.
Sorry, that was an expression/saying/phrase used fairly common where I am from, basically loosely using the word literally to describe/exaggerate things i.e "it was so hot, I literally thought I was going to catch on fire" or "man that math test was so hard, it was literally shit" haha. To clarify since you couldn't make the connection of water paving the way, like I said, flash flood heavy rains, happy to enlighten! Smile and since pave means to cover (a piece of ground) usually used with concrete, asphalt, stones bricks, and I said with water, I would think that would create a image of, well hopefully not a steamroller actually paving, but a more poetic approach of visualizing what paving would like in terms of water, which I would thought was a pretty good idea for conveying a flood. Sorry, I tried to not give it away, because there are two sides to this. I could describe every single boring detail and create the exact same image, or leave it open to individual interpretation, so I will work on finding a better balance of that.
