    dotsPink is the Colour ofdots
    -------------------------------------------


    Bloodstains
    not fully washed
    off white walls.

    Babies
    born too soon and
    sap the life of their mothers.

    Scars
    that have not yet
    begun to heal.

    Roses
    placed on the graves
    of the rarely-visited dead.

    Nails
    that dig in and
    leave impressions.

    Eyes
    that reflect what's
    at the bottom of the bottle.

    Cheeks
    when stinging flesh turns into
    the shape of a hand.

    Despair
    that lives inside
    us all.

      Hey,
    I've always thought of pink as something childish, innocent, light, girlish type of color. You've in a way kinda decided to take another approach towards it; see the bad sides of what pink is. interesting. I've never really thought of it because sometimes, certain things are better left unsaid so that they would leave this impression in our hearts and let us think that there is still beauty out there and perfection and purity and many other wonderful things. Forget that although there is a ying there is also a yang. sometimes, it's good to omit certain things. But you've taken another approach towards it which is good just something that i prefer nothing to write about.

    Still i enjoyed reading every bit of it. there was something about it that drawed me towards it. The title is not as powerful as the piece though. Just a thought. It does state what the poem is about yet the strength behind it is not the same as the piece.

    Take care till next time. Peace...Irina

      Hmmmmmmm...this was a little interesting

    I started at the point of not really knowing where you were going with this piece, and I have to say that I ended in about the same place. But I did get some things out of it, but don't we all. Everyone will take it in a different way, and I suppose that is a good thing.

      so you decided to artfully trash the colour pink.


    not a bad decision i suppose, but an unusual one. the poem structure itself didnt particulary capture me but the way you depicted your metaphors did grab my attention momentarily. fresh thinking. keep thinking originally
