A colour

Interrupted --
By a branch
Cutting across its belly
Like lightning.

A colour
Holding --
The weight 
Of the sun
As it sinks into the other side of the world.

A colour
Reflecting -- 
Into black 
Waters, yet Shining.

A colour
Smudged --
Carefully 
By an artist.
It's weight 
The canvas can only dream.

A colour
Created --
Drop of yellow,
Some red, blue
And green.
The world in front
Changed.
Time -- Moved.
City -- Asleep.

A colour
Shaped --
Like desire
Like me.

  2. I feel the weight of the colour like the canvas feels! Glad to see a Krea walk yield some poetry
