Cerulean's a vibrant hue

Cerulean’s a vibrant hue that sounds so avant-garde; if it were an aroma, ‘twould be hanging out with nard. It’s found with fuchsia and chartreuse, out sampling IPAs, with amaranth and indigo, takes in a Becket play. It fought with a cetaceous crowd and nearly came up short, but managed to reduce to ’blue’ their name in lower court. Give thanks some morphine-addled poet saw it in the skies and not within the bruises on his muddled lover’s thighs. Cerulean’s a pigment with the power to compel a poet to forget himself and fall under its spell.
