Adorn

The bright arrogate colors
Surround me in mass
Closing my eyes is futile 
Their obnoxious laughs
Mock me?
It's the red one
That taunts me relentlessly
With a disturbing madness 
Which barks after me?
The others whimsically dance
A sadistic destruction 
They paint war upon them
A trademark 
That no two carry 
People fawn over them
Placing them everywhere 
No matter my hiding
I'll never be free
