When the Moon is setting,
it mimics the Sun,
turning Cadmium Gold.
We all mimic those,
that impress us.

Still - I sit in the silence
Thoughts slowing
Colour warming from pale yellows to cadmium reds
Wonderful sunsets happening gently
Muscles relax into soft blue-green
Sweet clean smells assail my nostrils
Silken cords unloose my spine
A burst of joy filters through my body
Senses heightened
I rejoice
the clouds
of sausage and kidney shapes
and little shapes of Arp
float past me
in the sky of turquoise blue
in shades of white
pink and grey
they move
as the cadmium yellow sun
shines through
and taps me on my head and nose
and brightens up
my soul
as the energy glows from the top of my head
to the tippy tip tip of my toes
The lights lower.
The invisible conductor
raises
his magic wand.
Sounds swell. All musicians
in the cicada orchestra
play the tymbal.
Bats dance
to the firefly light show
against a backdrop
of cadmium blue.
Night drops the curtain.
Tireless,
the players continue –
music until dawn.

N/A July Premiere (Brian Strand), judged 7/13
"Chilly Air"
I ponder on the things I have done;
the choices that I have made.
As autumn has begun to change the green of nature,
to have a hint of cadmium red.
The air has a chill that cools my lungs
and puts goose bumps on my arms.
I reflect on the autumns that have past,
and how I rustled through the neat rows of fallen leaves.
Tiny dishes on my palette
filled with a rainbow of colors
that I meticulously mixed;
arranged like a row of flowers
that I’ll use to paint her portrait.
Cadmium yellow for her hair;
white and yellow ochre create
her flesh tone; perhaps if I dare
a dab of cadmium red.
Cadmium deep red for her lips;
perhaps a lighter shade instead.
Cerulean blue for her eyes;
and like a statue she will pose
while my paint laden bristles flow.
i was dreaming of
colors inside
my lonely Soul of
Cobalt violet
and viridian skies
Inside keeping my
heart so cadmium yellow;
Claude Monet's lilies
keeps me alive.
Imagine cobalt blue,
a peace upon the canvas
lead white kissing
with French ultramarine skies
and we hold hands
-- where we leave grief
and misunderstanding
behind. Kissing beneath
the sun i say, "Cadmium
Orange hugging Vermilion"
And the world murmurs
"That's so very true."

"Crisis!"
"Shelter in place!"
Sirens scream from tv monitors
Teleprompters indicate emphasis points
Stringing our fear
Along enough
'Till commercial
Breaks
When products offered by advertisers
Promise relief
From
Worry...
Drink this
Eat that
Drive this
Erect that
Smell this
Swallow that
Drink flouride
Eat gmo's
Drive carbon emissions
Erect a better you
Inhale cadmium-coated chemicals
Swallow cortex syngeing sleep aids
And
You'll
Be
Fine
