Literary devices, how I adore you... allusion, colloquialism, alliteration, metaphor, simile, juxtaposition (!!!!!!!), anntithesis, foreshadowing, imagery, symbolism, personification, irony, hyperbole???? All amazing.

#juxtaposition is my favorite child #and antithesis. they're similar #I ADORE working with them #or like. if I'm going to be using imagery. choosing it in a way that isn't as common #say i wanted to represent happiness or sadness with weather and seasons. usually summer is happy and winter is sad #OR INSTEAD #it's looming summer thunderstorms and heavy air versus the sunlight reflecting off of snow with a warm coffee mug in your hands #imploring more people to mess with and learn about literary devices #ALLITERATION TOO. I LOVE IT #idk maybe that's an unpopular opinion but I like alliteration sparingly #it can add a really nice rhythm and emphasis in a sentence #something i really like to do is adding a lot of more complex words in clusters for emphasis #it forces the reader to slow down and really SIT in the scene as they. not decode but just understand it #fall out boy is really fun to look at through a literary lens btw. they do a LOT of fun wordplay constantly #ts and marianas trench too. though ts is sometimes a bit on the nose about it #marianas trench has some really nice lyricism actually. idk why they never took off as much as other bands of the era #I could definitely write an essay on marianas trench's lyricism #mitski is good at imagery #i should have been an english major. this is entertainment to me
