What can I give you?

PROUD TO HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO ALIVE WORDS THAT CREATE A WORLD WITHOUT MAPS:

From Anthology Volume I: Writings from the Sudden Denouement Literary Collective

What can I give you? I am the blue

as imagined by a blind

and the roots of knowledge

as watered by a scholar.

I am the yellow

wind and the mauve

respond of light

perched

in the ubiquitous trees

tethered in the clouds

that barely scratch

the sky.

I am the green

storm and colorless waves

that wished upon a mountain

to break water in tryst

with the sun.

Not by blindness

we can reorder colors

but by the painting of a soul

in a moment tender

as the liquid moon

is quivering above the forest.
