Ondaatje poem

Your laughter sounds like the glaciers being cracked by a shredder
Like a cat accidentally climb into a washing machine
Like someone has choked a pebble in his throat
Like a runner runs ten km and suddenly fall down
Like an old radio, like a kid who sees his favourite candies, but he is allergic to them
Like the nails scratch on a blackboard
The sudden noise in the broadcast
A bottle of water that is about to boil
An almost dead fish struggling on the beach
Like a lady being scared by the scenes in horror movies
Like wind howling through a tiny hole
Like grandmother breaks an expensive dish
Like a thief, goes into an empty house,
And unexpectedly steps on a thumbtack
A man never played violin tries to blend in,
A well-organized orchestra
Like a coconut drops from a tree
Like a cat being sacred by an angry dog
Like a thousand of ducks start to shout at the same time
Like someone rips a sheet of paper
Like a car stops suddenly in front of a red light
Like a pig having its meal, when it didn't eat for five days,
Like an old bicycle, which is going to scatter,
being ride by a teenager,
Like all the fire alarms in a building start to ring
A balloon being step by a baby and doesn't explode
Like someone is squeezing a bag of chips
Like a steam train drives through the track with plastic foam on it
