you’re the colour of the two-headed dragon
the colour of lemma’s horns
of death
addiction
of frightening little pills
of a warholized world

the colour of love
unrequited and quitted
the colour of my mother’s thumb
sewed with the needle of a sewing machine
of the little bald patch on her scalp

what would you say if I told you
you make me want to go colour blind.

    You should have shared this (and these) with me a long time ago. These are brilliant.
