Spoken Word Poetry Assignment

In a spoken poetry "Tomatoes" by Shane Koyczan, he answers a question that people always ask him; "How do you memorize all of that?". He compares the way how he memorize to his first kiss that tasted like tomatoes. It is hard to memorize people's name, birthdays, anything that are everywhere, but what he is saying is that "I remember all the ways people have affected me.", or something he does not expect. Analogy stands out in this poetry. He refers his remarkable experiences in his middle school such as nickname, swear, and relationship to why he remembers them clearly. He also advises that life will be worth remembering if people put themselves into every second of every minutes. The way he memorizes is not a trick.
