Three-Kolored Ku - Now 10

Three-Kolored Ku (Now 10) 1. bluebird’s ear’s to ground – pink collared worm (casts below) now won’t grace black hook 2. blue days can have clouds, yellow sun bursts pierce grey clouds - rainbow’s arc mocks smile? 3. girls pink with envy, boys made blue by sexist roles - ‘his story’ just black 4. greyed out politics – blue and red (views, poop) both suspect in the fog of war 5. red sunsets portend dawn’s blue skies to those caring – black thoughts rarely float 6. pumpkin’s orange loves tomato’s ripened redness – light’s short, black cat nights stretch 7. fall topples most green, revealing vibrant colors - reds, yellows – drab wins 8. poetry’s greenest when planted fields change color - red blood fades to black 9. green planet’s seasons, the ocean’s blue expanses, the earth’s spine - beached white 10. time’s future’s more dark man’s ‘black’ and ‘white’ aren’t colors (1) Grace – red, blood-cured wood? Krakatoa Kritic #007 October 29, 2022 Poet's Notes: (1) Black is the absence of light, hence no color at all. White is a combination of all colors, so no color also.
