Egg Horror Poem What is an egg’s greatest fear, Laurel Winter the author of “Egg Horror Poem”, writes about the eggs expressing a form of fear, and showing the likes of Personification. The story also shows a series of Repetition which is repeated over and over, and Diction is also shown when the eggs make movement in their compartments. The story starts off with the eggs in the cold, dark of the fridge huddling in their carton.
Which “in the cold, in the dark” (line 35-36, 44-45) is a form of repetition it is used repeatedly over to show the dangerous, freezing fridge in which they inhabit. The eggs are referred to in the beginning as “Small white afraid of heights whispering in the cold, dark carton to the rest of the dozen” (line 1-6)
