Invisible Bruise 1
cobalt jeers, sapphire leers oozing with color
how does a poet describe an internal bruise?
jay-bird jeers leave a speaker mentally out-of-focus
the litmus test of leers, the person who feels scared
tears tinged with turquoise kept hidden in public
pour from denim hearts, alone in bed at midnight
Flowing from fluorescent fears no drug can numb
leaving black and boo-hoo marks for months on end
