I Once Knew You
blue
i once knew you
saw you behind
eyes glassed by
rage- or maybe
lust, i wouldn't
know.
green
the shiny sheen
melting down my
porcelain face-
disgraced.
red
storms, gasps of
pumping blood
pissing on the
god of love.
purple
rose clusters
on the flesh
buttons pressed
in sequence-
(inside, outside)
gold
streams of light
contrasting with
the stains left by
the night.
