Unbearable Beauty In the Colour Red

red is such an interesting colour war is such an intricate gore but it's SO SIMPLE YES I'VE FOUND MY WAY OUT BLEND THE SINS AND CREATE A WHIRLWIND OF DEPRESSION AND LOSS AND DARK THOUGHTS AND MANY SUICIDAL ATTEMPTS MADE UP IN YOUR HEADLESS CHOKING AND PILLS AND GUILT AND UGLINESS LAMENT AND WEEPING AND AND AND SADNESS SADNESS SADNESS Sadness yes draw some more art on your paper veins, dear you beautiful PSYCHO YOU YES YES ONLY EXCELLING IN ONE COLOUR maybe someone might see and gift you the help you need but i don't believe white walls will stop you from seeing blood flesh is such SUCH an EROTIC word how the final syllable quiets it's victim light the torture and that's all the light you've got left to write in you put the art in artery painting from your colours is so soothing it’s like making a wish in the fountain of youth it’s never fun to wipe away the evidence but most of it squirts onto the canvas oh, yes. what a perfect mess i’ve made of you. Red on white is a sad colour and he's gone his body floods onto the Earth.

Congrats on winning in Franks contest. Frank is a hard but fair judge. For me i feel this is one of your best. Within this piece I see a glimpse of your possibilities. It's edgy but minus the abruptness of some of your other pieces. It doesn't put off the reader, therefore they become engaged and are able to look beyond the surface of the writing. Bravo.
