Color Me Blues

Red, yellow,

green & purple.

Mix & match

with purpose.

Force a clash;

make a splash.

Compliment

sincerely.

Intensely different

hues.

Deeper

dirty blues.

Spread out shades

with white & grays—

black nights

& darker souls.

Brush up on your

greens—

& other things

that preen.

Monochrome

& bungalows

that live alone

on Fridays.

Who sees

if color-blind?

Not future—

nor behind.

But not my eyes.

(They're selling lies.)

To newborns

& my friends.
