Princess Ivy

i've no idea if this will work online, its another that we play at writers workshop. we give an item, then the next person has to give an uncliched similie/metaphor
eg: strength - as helpless as a shark in bloody water , in other words, you need to give a similie or metaphor which describes the word or concept. you can, but don't have to use the word/concept of the originator. just don't be cliched. cliche's get into trouble.

first one:

GOOD.

Stalker

GOOD - unfortunately, it's like a bird in the sky and is not as close to this earth as evil :redface:

DOLPHIN

Princess Ivy

being a great douglas adams fan, i want to say it swims through the water exactly like a wrecked ship doesn't.

soars, silver and sleek, cutting the water like lead through flesh.

calender.
