Neutral Graffiti
I'm a monochromatic being
distracted by a world of color.
I'm a black and white soul
assaulted by the deception of saturation
and shiny things.
In my mind I reside in an achromatic micro niche of crystal clarity.
In reality I slop through the chaotic overflow,
the splatter of
running liquid neon color
on a very neutral background,
running away toward an ocean of oily subterfuge with my will to discern
right from wrong,
that which is real from that which is fiction.
The loud, brilliant colors,
a distraction to take my breath away
and pervert my reliance on the virtue of
a heavy,
sterile blanket
that separates me from the thing
in the window.
The thing holding a wet brush.
The thing looking in.
