So….guess what it is!! It’s supposed to seem like two different things….one thing that’s on your list, and another that’s much much different.

How did it sound? I wanted it to sound nice, but it mostly just sounds…bad >< and horribly un-lyrical/poetic

Its dark, ominous and beautiful, joyful. all i can say is WOW ! No matter what anyone else writes, this IS the Best and clear winner of this challenge.

I agree with Kermit. Especially because the way you structured it REALLY fits well with what you’re describing (or what I think you’re describing?)

Wow, this is an amazing style you wrote here, beautiful. In fact, it’s disqualified for being too good.

=D Thank you so much! I didn’t know it would be this much of a success.

Oh yeah, in case anyone couldn’t tell, this sort of represents both a snowflake and the Holocaust. Sad and ugly for the horrors that can/did happen, but beautiful for the strength of the people who struggled to survive amidst all the darkness.

this is amazing writing. absolutely phenomenal. definitely the winner of the contest!

omg!this is so wonder full!!!!!

really beautiful in a dark way

I think part of my problem is that keep noticing how something will work for one side of the analogy but not the other.

When they do both fit, however, the piece is transcendent.

I guess so. I mean, obviously, snowflakes don’t have feelings, so that part can be sort of weird. But I think other than that…they fit? Like, the chemicals raining down can be taken either as like…salt that causes snow to melt, or of course as the gas from the gas chambers.

Oh, and thank you everybody!!
