Colores Primarios: Amarillo

the very tip of the flame, the color of shite journalism, “stars of spectral classes f & g,” a ripe banana peel, piss full of vitamins being flushed out, ring around the collar, chats n’ shafted flickers n’ hammers n’ warblers, emma stone’s locks prior to her better known dye- jobs, charlize’s natural locks known to all moviegoers, lemons, ducks when portrayed in rubber form at a county fair, a pedestrian-crossing street sign, lilium, yellow chrysanthemums, oenothera, this color cake is one step in making a nuke, for the maya it meant southward, donovan made a killing with his mellow song addressing it, a single lamp glowing in a dark room & echoing visually on the wall, internationally n’ maritimely this color flag means the letter “q,” these color pages used to dominate ones’ ability to give someone a ring, goldenrod, ½ of a bumble bee’s color in total, the sun rising in a clear sky’s early morn.
