 Satiny cloth fluttering in the air, 

hollow poles of steel embedded in concrete, 
conspicuous symbols stitched to perfection, 
depicting national pride, unparalleled privilege, 
the flag tapers to the sky in crisp draughts of autumn breeze.
 
Fiber metal sheets glowing in radium light, 
Crystal glass windows sliding down, 
Cushioned steering power packed with compressible Dunlop, 
Coats of silver paint sizzling in sunshine, 
Twin rubber seats draped in opalescent cover, 
The sapphire blue sedan dipped down steep curves of the valley.
 
Round white beads of synthetic plastic, 
Sewn articulately to glossy coarse cloth, 
Parallel cuts of arm length sleeve, 
Faded exteriors blended with blotches of light blue dye, 
Sweat proof texture hindering perspiring whiffs of odour, 
The cloud blue denim shirt hangs on curved hangers of  the city showroom.
 
Square chocolates of thick bulky rock, 
Submerged in golden extracts of medieval liquid, 
Cut in oval shapes by electric cutters of steel, 
Glistening wildly in an ambience of dull murky light, 
The sackfull of gold coins lay stashed in realms of coded iron safe.
 
Bare stone bricks abraded with sandpaper, 
Sloping roofs lined with exquisite china tile, 
Polished mahogany doors studded with brass, 
Palacial marble columns holding dead live weight of roof, 
Mystical cuckoo bird bathing in mud bowls of water, 
The split level house loomed large on undulating
landscapes of swiss plateau.
 
Frothy white liquid dripping at slow speeds, 
Due to deft hand massage of fertile cow teats, 
Filling bronze buckets with liters of cream, 
Gratifying millions of mouths with early morning meals, 
The pure cow milk churned waves of desire after spoonfuls of consumption.
 
Striking its fangs against an enclosure of bronze, 
Riveted firmly to rolled surface of plaster, 
Triggered by intricate mechanisms of coiled wire, 
Producing sugary tunes by mere caress to the spongy switch, 
The magnificent house bell lights up molecules of doom suspended, 
With melodious rhymes circulating sedately through atmosphere. 
 
Striped furry coat stuck tightly to skin, 
Eyes radiating in orange roof light, 
Whiskers drooping down in bruised pride, 
Razor sharp teeth emitting a ferocious growl, 
Perched for centuries on rock tablets of hard ground, 
The wild stuffed leopard stands lifeless after years of jungle rule.
 
Tubular body reinforced with steel chips, 
Having watertight windows overlooking the sea, 
Long tunnel passages illuminated with fluorescent bulb, 
Spending its entire life in vast prisons of salty water, 
The submarine proudly marched kissing colonies of sea weed bush.
