Read the extended metaphor poem below.
Bat
My son is a bat.
His eyes blink when darkness comes.
His body stirs with life.
His limbs gorge with blood
as he sets out through the cave of night
his roof the stars
the moon a big white eye watching.
Attracted by the false lights
he mingles with his batty friends
weaving in and out of nightclubs
endless parties
each other’s places
till sensing the sudden ebb
of darkness
he flutters home
a cloaked Dracula
to the hollow of his room
where he will sleep all day

This poem, is different from a catalog poem because it is more put together..
What I think a metaphor poem is is when the poem has a series of metaphors to make up the poem

I think an extended metaphore poem is when you take a metaphor, and just as it sounds, you stretch and expand it out into a poem, all surrounding that beginning metaphor.
