WRITING OBSTACLE

Write a piece that starts with a zeugma.

A zeugma is a sentence where one verb is used to modify two nouns, such as “he held her hand and his tongue.”

Rush

She broke his heart, and his favorite car

Drinking and driving, from her local bar


Holding his own breath, and her hand too

Papers, prints, a few hefty fines, she’s blue


Tears in a fountain, running and flowing

Tissues, crying and a lot of nose blowing


She gathered her wits, and her warm coat

Hurrying in a rush, to catch the last boat
