His Sentence:
They streamed over the mountains, hungry and restless- restless as ants, scurrying to find work to do- to lift, to push, to pull, to pick, to cut- anything, any burden to bear, for food.
from Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
A loose sentence full of repetition, anadiplosis, and anaphora to emphasis the level of desperation the people are at in their search for honest work.
My Sentence:
They pushed toward the finish line, red-faced and panting- panting as dogs, forcing their legs to go- to move, to push, to lift, to scurry, to sprint- anything, any form of movement, toward the finish.
