Poetry, Day Two: Face

* For today’s poem, take a single face you know as your point of departure. It doesn’t even have to be a real-life, flesh-and-blood face you’re writing about. Faces are everywhere in the texture of our daily lives: from portraits in the museum to the banknotes in our wallets, and from billboards and street art to online profile pictures.
* If you’d like to push yourself a bit further today, give alliteration a try — it’s a handy poetic device that involves repeating the same consonant sound multiple times.

Young lady, don’t give me that tone!”
