Oppressive Orange
Speaking of oppressive orange,
where do we find it?
Is it in the Orange Revolution
in Ukraine,
when there were political wrangles?
Is it in a sour orange juice that a two
year-old child is forced to take,
to get vitamin c?
Is it in a wall painted orange in a house,
while one of the couples wanted white?
Is it in the mid-day sun that burns
our backs and heads in summer?
Or, is it in the dictionary,
where words are coined every day?
