Notes About The Poem

This is a series on the topic "White" I will cover all emotions all spectrums of color in a way, the series will be posted here with the final poem posted on Instagram. Even I am not sure where it all ends, that's the fun!  I do know there will many layers within layers.

White

Black is not white
Nor is it black or white
Ask any purple Zebra
He will explain so colorfully
Illustrating the life and love
Of a dancing Gothic chicken
Around  a lake of make-believe dreams
Steam punk trains
On the tracks of time
Tickets available
At yesterdays window
