Coffee Pants

Hi, Beck, welcome to the Pen. Big Grin

I want to talk about the last four lines. I love them, they are the type of lines I write myself, but they are place holders. What they are saying is perfect and clear, the challenge is to express it in a striking, unique way, something the reader will absorb and feel. It's tough, but for me a worthwhile pastime.

A boy who can't walk without crutches
also can't carry a cup of coffee to his room
without spilling,
all. over. his. leg.
 
The dispossessed feeling of anger and sadness
is waning,
and joy
is taking its place.
