Ras Algethi (Haiku)

Ras Algethi

Angered at a hair,
Shiny metal, wood between,
Thunder is my cry.

PrisonerOfPrey is on a distinguished road
I'm not much of a haiku person myself, but just because its short doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to be commented on. I don't really know what this was about (probably just a lack of background knowledge) and thunder is my cry seems clique. Still, it was pleasant to read. Thanks for posting.

Once the object of the poem becomes clear, I don't see how the last line could be construed as a cliche. Metaphors rock.

Thanks for the crit
