Colour Blind
Elder Sister Plum

Shedding skin and hair,

Eyelashes everywhere

Skin like bruised bananas and pears,

Blueberries and apple cores


There's poison in my pores.

Acrylic colours cutting in

The corners of my mind.

The corners of my mouth are sharing


Secrets with your eyes.

Try to decipher the reason

Of my rhyme,

I split atoms while you travel in time.


I'll crack your back

While you play my bones

With ease and a steady beat.

I'm knocking my knees to the rhythm


Of your breath pouring through your teeth.

Gather my skin, leaving trails

Underneath your fingernails.

Layer by layer revealing all that's


Iridescent and frail.

Skeletal lovers are

Leaving this world behind.

Let's lift the veil so we can lose our minds.


I took a bite and it tasted fine

So I let it ferment

And I made some damn good wine.


Up in the sky, if you're looking right

You will see what i mean

When I speak between the lines.


Made up my mind and I hitched a ride

Cause i'm getting kinda tired

Of the grass on this side.


I know it's pretty green,

The greenest I've ever seen but,

Lately i've been feeling just a little bit

Colour blind.


Row, row,

Row your boat,

Pick up a paddle and

Cross my moat



I'll be your blanket

And your winter coat.

Cross my eyes and

Pray for hope


I know your soundtrack

Note for note.

I'm testing the waters

Gonna see if I float


I fill my lungs

With electric air,

My icicle hair is dripping

And my thoughts begin to tear.


Loosing reality,

Choosing just not to care.

I'll show you mine

If you promise not to stare.


Your mouth is hot like fire,

Blister burning on my lips.

And on my clenched fists,

I'm shaking in the


Wake of our desire,

Sleepily sucking the light out

Of our eyes.

A pinch and a wink, hey man we'll be just fine.


A pinch and a wink, hey man we're doing fine.


I took a bite and it tasted fine,

So I let it ferment

And I made some damn good wine.


Up in the sky, if you're looking right

You will see what I mean

When I speak between the lines.


Made up my mind and I hitched a ride,

Cause i'm getting kinda tired

Of the grass on this side,


I know it's pretty green,

The greenest I've ever seen but,

Lately I've been feeling just a little bit

Colour blind.
