If truth be told, I’m getting old
my hair is streaked with grey
I cannot lie, I use hair dye
To banish the greys away

Colors are flying
The yellows the greens
Colors are splattering
The reds the blues
The white it's dyeing
The purples the pinks
Looks quite flattering!
The colors the hues!...

Resiliently
receptionist recovered
recycled report


See subdued sunbeams
Subsisting still, somewhere shine
Suffusing sunset


Trendy teenager
Trusting tie-dyeing trainee
Tee shirt total trash...

As I lay dyeing, I spoke your name.
I asked where you were but you never came.
Would you care if I died?
Would you sit and cry?
or move on without a tear? Some things I'll never know,
As I lay dyeing....

dyeing my hair brown 
I think of my youthful days 
pushing wild limits
rosy girls and fine liquor blessed ---
as twilight years fade

September leaves come tumbling down.
Twirling, whirling.
Tumbling down.

September leaves all colors too.
Red, yellow, orange
All colors too.

September trees all dyeing out.
Growing older.
Dyeing out

He wants a big idea  that he can share
How about a contest about "hair'
short, curly, long or straight
Your own colour that you hate,
Try dyeing it, show that you have flair.

I’ve let my hair go silver;
I think it’s kinda cool.
Since no one really sees me,
There’s no chance for ridicule.

After years and years of dyeing,
It felt right for me to move on
So I’ll see just how it feels to get
My own old lady groove on!...

some time ago a hope;
suffering place we live
survival of our earth
slowly dyeing outside
seasons of anguish grief
stand firm, change human voice
so we may well survive

Azure is the sky, dyeing 
A shade darker beyond twilight
From cold embrace of heaven
Star falls, darkness calls.
Embers of sky, dance.
Deep the shifting hues,
A burn of spectrums rays,
Horizon a fire. 
Dyeing in cool mists
Shimmer pinpricks 
Alight in the firmament
Deep past midnight…...

Where did love go?
I thought it was right here,
Guess I was wrong.

All I see now is,
War,
Broken hearts,
Killing and dyeing.

I thought I was gunna find it,
But it keeps going farther and farther,
I would start to run,
And win over love,
But whats the point,
It will only run faster,
Till it's gone....

If people could begin dyeing their skin 
It could change the world. 

The people seeing us coming 
Would have to adjust their preconceived ideas 

Until I met a blue skin 
I would not know anything about blue skins, 

But after I met one blue skin would that mean 
I could explain them all? 
Hopefully not ......

Laugh at me in absurdity
Until you die you shall live in infamy
Death has shown me
Illicit things the world may never see
Chivalry never meant much for me
Ruminating over all I'd never be
Obviously dyeing to know what peers think
Until the day I die I will be an antagonist
Sweet vanguard never knew what I missed, what ludicrous....

Sue peers in the mirror with fright
Her parting’s a terrible sight
On top of her head
A badger - it’s dead
Sue must use some hair dye tonight!


She’d applied hair dye carefully
Grey hairs Sue can no longer see
All the grey is now brown
She no longer feels down
And styles her hair prettily

Oh I love the battle of picking out hair, 
The grey ones the brown ones, mistaking the fair.
I thought it was charming that first little one, they have turned into bxxxers from that stray 
single one.
Now it's all turning as they bush from my bonce.
A blanket of grey is what I would see, if i wasn't plucking and dyeing day after day!!...

Nothing within
Nothing without
No place to turn
Nothing but doubt

Wish I was numb
Would finish dyeing inside
There's not much left
Just want somewhere to hide

Nothing behind
Nothing ahead
Hate to see the sun rise
Feeling nothing but dread

Can't do anything right
Wish it would all go away
I'm tired of life
All the games people play...

He used to tell me

Your queen is a christian queen
Your love is a christian love
Your fate is a christian fate

But where is my queen? She died in exile
Now where is my love? He dies for exile
And where is my fate? It's dyeing my exile

And nobody answers me anymore,
Not even the wind
that we used to trust

But that was when
We were still 
Together

Together......

Blue 
roses
don't exist
though the science trying
To change the DNA of roses to create blue.
I wait for that joyous day for rose world
till then make do
with white rose
dyeing it
blue.
The
one who
find blue rose
stands for true love
The legend tells us, will become the king
