I suppose it’s pedantic to point out that rivers on Planet Earth actually spread out and slow down when they hit the ocean. “…like a river that meanders among bayous, providing a quaint and peaceful habitat for silt-dwelling wildlife and folks who like spicy food.”
Hi Margaret!
The image of something pulsing INTO the heart doesn’t work, at least if you were awake during anatomy class. For those who slept through anatomy class, I guess anything is possible.
If any of you have participated in team sports, you’ll recognize this over overwrought, melodramatic nonsense which passes for athletic motivation.
Imagine a professor or administrator yapping in this fashion to a remedial math/English class, going on about the pulsating, throbbing yearning to learn material you should have known in junior high. Harlequin novels aren’t this turgid….
