1. the bones of the chair creaked

   the chair stared ominously at the prisoner

   the chair sat alone in the dark

   the chair’s arms held the prisoner

   the chair rested its head on the doorknob

   the chair leaned back as though relaxing

   the chair creaked, its scream echoing in the silence

   as the chair broke in half, it screamed in imaginary pain

   the chair twisted to look behind it (good one if using a chair that can spin around)

   the man grabbed the chair and flicked it into the air; like a cat, the chair landed on all fours

   the kite greedily clung to the wind

   the kite’s tail clung to the hands of the child

   the kite zipped past the air, rising higher

   the kite dodged the lightning

   the kite admitted defeat as it fell to the ground

   the kite breathed in the fresh air

   the kite opened its arm and reveled in the wind that blew it higher into the sky

   the kite savored the wind that was blowing in its face

   the kite smiled at the sun

   the kite smiled down on everyone

   the kite danced majestically across the sky

2. Personification Words

3. Maybe because theist is pronounced differently to atheist. The atheist makes the ei sound like “e” instead of “a” but I’m not totally confident that that is the reason. Perhaps it is true, as creatrix suggests, that atheists are for some reason better spellers. If it were it would certainly result in atheist being spelt incorrectly more often as atheists use the word theist most often while everyone uses the word atheist.
