The Path to Purple
Crimson chakra at the base the sacred perineum short lengths waving
a holy colour wholesome changing mingling like an ocean crest and you
the surfer riding life with Delphic dolphins searching for answers to
questions posed un-posed ascending let go assembled webbed together for
survival safety escape from blood tinged minefields of human aberration
rooting in what is yet to come the rainbow pastel taming tides of passion
Red like the emperor’s clothes in nubile nudity native naivety reflected
shades of vibrant healthy tissues the womb the curse and inspiration
aspiring to violet the crown from simple found foundations on the road and
swerving journey from war to peace evaporating hatred to compassion
