Random

The moon, broken off like an arctic glacier plummeting into the cold blue

A red flower, brilliant as the burning embers of a dying fire

Her fingers, delicate as thinly spun sugar

The island stretches out from the coast
like a giraffe kneeling to drink

Your backbone ridged like randomly placed river rocks on the shore

Soft as the sound of a wasp walking on a window pane

That bicyclist, careening downhill like a hawk dive-bombing for its next victim

Crazy bird! Its song like the lightning that illuminates the summer night sky

His monotonous voice like the steady marching of the soldiers

She spun off like a fly, its wings violently plucked from its body

Days pass like the golden wheat grows in the amber fields
