Field guide No. 243
Apple peel, flesh walking away
Leaving the skin to hold the shape.
A red apple's peel stands in a perfect empty spiral while the peeled white flesh walks off on two little stalk legs. The peel is taking it well.
Field noteFruit with legs is biology taking liberties. A peel standing empty is mere good peeling.
Also possible, also breaking physics
Gravity has left the roomEggs fall, as a rule. This one is merely ignoring the rule, which is physics’ affair.
A featherweight decisionAnvils do not float. Tying one down is sensible; the floating is physics’ oversight.
Reserved for the rainRain falling only where booked is meteorology being fussy. A table can have its own weather in principle.
School attractionSardines contain iron, though not enough to bother a magnet. Physics declines; logic shrugs.
