The colors of my mind
run together, tongue to tongue
like child lovers left unchaste
owning knowledge far too soon
heart to heart
and taste to taste
in a closeness long unkind
bleeding together from the start
while only half in bloom.
The promised rainbow blurred and broken
like a sunrise offered to the blind
whose eyes see only what I see
inside my mind.
The reds and yellows, blues and greens
form thunder clouds unlined
writhing, twisting into
a virginity denied
tossed and sifted
mixed but unrefined
chaoticly become
a shade of one
(inside me)
overdone.
A palate of mud
a toxic brown
a spilled inkwell
of day old blood.
