Simile

noun
a figure of speech that expresses a resemblance between things of different kinds (usually formed with 'like' or 'as')
source: dictionary.com

Let's have fun with this one. The more weird and humorous the better.

I'll start off the beginning and then each subsequent addition should simply start with "like" or "as."



I am missing you
like a redneck and his teeth

sauce without chile
ocean without water
night without darkness
salad without dressing
dress without a body
body without caresses
game without contenders
bullfighter without a cape
walking without feet
seeing without eyes
running without legs

a bird with no feathers
a rabbit without carrots
bugs without elmer
elmer without the duck
elvis without a voice
old city with no legends
cancun with no tourists
food that no one will eat
clouds without the paradox
a one side coin
a one side pancake

I thought it would be nice to take this to the gutter:

like a cock without his balls

like a stripper without her pole

like a whore without a client

like a naughty little ass without a good spanking

like a gutter without the stars to gaze upon

like a size 0 model without her coke

like a junkie without a stash

like a gay stereotype without leather and a moustache

like a potato without the mash

ok that's enough

like a sexual poem without a beaver

I am missing you

like a christmas tree with out the smell
like heaven without hell
