My MS Word, set to the default dictionary (I don't seem to have any other options) will not automatically underline anything in "focussed colour aluminium." However, when I ran spell check, it objected to all of them.
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Do you have Word set to Spell Check as you Type? Or whatever the real name of that section is? Those are two different functions, Spellchecking and Checking as You Type.

focussed colour aluminium
Good name for a band.
If I ever have a band again, it will be called "ghoti", pronounced "fish".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Like these guys, pretty much?

Usually it'll underline misspelled words. Now when I tried typing that phrase again in the same document, it automatically changed "focussed" to "focused" and underlined the other two.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty
Okay, inviting opinions:
Sky Horse
A horse, trotting daintily through the sky;
Pauses a moment to graze a tree-top;
Then jumps over a drifting cloud
and is gone.
A great grey horse of the moon,
Chalky on a pagan hillside.
dance ballerina-like on the knife edge
roof top – leap in dressage over a
satellite ariel.
Glimpsed only from an aeroplane of dreams,
Or the startled eyes of a sleepy bird,
the moon-horse lives in the air,
and is gone.

It seems like you switched verb tenses in the third stanza. You might want to be more consistent.I liked it otherwise, interesting image.
