Quote:           Silicon Valley Palettes

 
A windy cirrus sky wisping
                        ice, celestial, sea;
the cold brackish Bay shimmering
                        azure, diamond, sage;
            gird a saltgrass-fringed, pickleweedy isle,
            harboring a peaceful colony of oceanic
            pelicans−each one plumed achromatic
                        white: indistinct, impartial, colorless,
                        as pulsing stars, sunlight, clear night.
 
                        Giant swirly lollipops,                      
            clownish cruiser bicycles,­­­
M&M-top umbrellas−blue
                        green
            red
yellow−
                        bound glaringly off squat
            specular architecture over a
sprawling synthetic archipelago,
                        raining warm rainbows on
            kaleidoscopic kids−each one a
fractal of chromatic intensity:
                        singular, contrastive, vivid,
             as a perspective, desire,
 fantasy.

Continuing to improve, and welcome back.  "Contrastive, vivid" strikes me as alliterative overkill - two consecutive vees are hard to pronounce (at least for me), but I love "speculative architecture."

You also have a bunch of other fine critics, have to read them before commenting further.
