Welp,

A) Writers with more skill is key. There are some advanced tricks to writing that you need more skill to pull of credibly. First-person present tense is one. Using "orbs" to mean eyes is another.

B) Is it really a metaphor? Because it seems a little broken. With a metaphor there needs to be some frame of reference, but calling eyes "orbs" regardless of context is basically just substituting the word "orbs" for "eyes."

C) If one particular "metaphor" has been used by writers for a long time, that's as good a reason as any to stop.

D) Orbs for eyes. Just say no.
