Tyrannical is to verbose is words to
Personally, i would write the sentence 4, 1, 3, 5, 2. Seems like the correct way to do it. Hope that helps you out a bit! ^.^
This is most evidently a metaphor. The thing to keep in mind when analyzing literature/poetry is that if you see figurative language making comparisons/drawing parallels between two differing things--instances where the meaning is not literal such as how injustice is not really a fire and has no flames--it's a safe bet you'll have on your hands a metaphor.
I think you forgot to put the picture on?
The topic sentence is usually the first (or sometimes the second) sentence of a paragraph. It summarizes the paragraph as well as identifies the main point.
I hope this was helpful.
