It's a similie.

Don't you kids learn ANYTHING in school these days?

It's specifically not a simile. The simile is between "the lighting in the picture" and "the slow drift of the sun". The bit about fragments of meaning is a participle phrase describing the drift of the sun. A nonsensical one, specifically.

You've never let your eyes glaze over as the sun sinks into that dreamy late-afternoon line, and experienced its interaction with your other senses?

I feel sorry for you. I don't really understand how someone so lacking in imagination is into fandom, to be honest.

I learned today that you don't know what a simile is. Hint: it's not a code word for random phrases.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-24 02:39 pm (UTC)(link)
X does Y like a Z. Similie. Clue is in the word "like."

(Anonymous) 2015-04-24 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"The lighting in the picture you chose is very beautiful, OP, like the slow drift of the sun into fragments of meaning like the slow drift of the sun into fragments of meaning"

A simile is a comparison between two different things. This sentence compares light to a source of light, then tosses in a phrase that makes no sense in the context.

"The slice of pizza on this plate is like the steamy bubbling of food into shards of regret"

Also not a simile. But they're both examples of poor writing, albeit poor writing that might pass muster with the less discriminating.
