I should have mixed the pain(t)
before I raised my brush,
a devil hatched a saint
then stroked the white with blush.
The redness of these eyes
once radiant and lush
would palpitate with cries
in wounds I couldn't hush.
I should have kept my secrets
or mixed the reds with white
I might have cleansed my spirit
but grey was stealing light,
instead I played with blues
and envy's greenish hues
it's magic I would bleed;
another purple bruise.
Soon I had a canvas
that was black before my eyes
when all the rainbow colors
you might find to mesmerize
had faded with the beauty
and the portrait of my peace
I lost myself in pain(ting)
as I wept a masterpiece.
The colors of the hearts
that the world considers bland,
I should have mixed the colors
so beautiful and grand
instead I bled acrylic
on easel's, dead and damned
then smeared the dripping pain(t)
with the tears and years that ran.
The Wall
@Tits - I only know that because of Donnie Darko. Great Movie despite the painful and needed movie time travel determinism. I do not see cellar door as the most perfect phrase. It anagrams amazing, but I maintain the world's most beautiful phrases are "Neverending supply of cocaine" or "winning powerball ticket".@Pussy - I can look up hotels in Prague, that's Atheist Warsaw. You must live near there, I cant peg you as feral.
