Write a poem that is an extended metaphor. Rather than making a series of comparisons between your topic and other things (e.g., "Life is a bagel... Life is a game... Life is a test"), make a single comparison between your topic and whatever your comparing and extend it through fine details. For example, if your metaphor is Life is a game, find different details about games that make the comparison richer and more subtle - you play by the rules, people try to cheat, sometimes you win, you keep score, etc.
