Mare Similes
he swims like a house brick
she swims like a seal almost escaping the shark
he cries like a found out evangelist
she cries like a baby that's teething
He punches like a puppet show
she punches like a one legged man kicks
he smiles like a toothless donkey
she smiles like a lunatic that thinks he's Jesus
he laughs like a hyena with a yeast infection
she laughs like a tickled gibbon
he talks like Charlie Brown's Teachers
she talks like forever
he walks like a centipede with only 62 legs
she walks like a lame zebra
as brave a Donald Trump supporter in California
as quiet as a two minute silence
as frantic as three blind mice
as smashed as Humpty Dumpty
as welcome as condom in the punch bowl
as scared as a woman having to pay for dinner
as revolutionary as being kind to everybody
as sold out as Bernie Clifton
As wet as Theresa May's handshake
as crooked as The Clinton Foundation
as orange as a Trump Tan
as corrupt as a Pakistani police chief's bank account
as black as Michael Jackson's original colour
as much use as a handless Vegas dealer
as white as my clean underwear; temporarily
as red as a fresh third degree burns
as blue as I am feeling right now
as pink as salmonella under cooked chicken
as green as a jealous lover
as important as David Macleod's Poetry
as handsome as David Macleod
as loyal as David Macleod
as intelligent as David Macleod
as sexy as David Macleod
as witty as David Macleod
as modest as David Macleod

Well, well, well...
The ending was a total hoot, but then again, the whole thing rather was.
When you go off on theme of little bits (This, haikus, or any other venture) it's always a blast. You've got the wit for this 😆 It's hilarious!
But in all seriousness, very good dude!
