Belut Kesengsaraan
Anyone have read "The Magic Thief" book? The author Sarah Prineas use this phrase: " misery eel ". Or in Indonesian, " belut kesengsaraan ". Do you see how fascinating the phrase is? Eel is a slippery cold blooded creature. Associate it with a noun, misery. How do you describe the feeling misery? Lonely? Distress? Discomfort? Imagine when you're feeling misery. All those burdens on your back, suffocating feelings, chills in your bones.... Like a slimy cold eel sliding down your neck, stifling you.... "The rain started up again, not a hard rain, but a cold one, just enough to get into your bones and make you shiver. A good night for misery eels." - the magic thief
