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.
