What color is death?
And what color are regrets?
How would you paint life
and how do you draw strife?
If death is black
life should be a glaring white
but if life is white
where do you find bright?
If moments like grey stones
hurled in a calming blue,
create ripples and regrets
what color do they finally set?
If life is a scenic beauty
where do miseries come from?
what colors do they make when
a hungry child murders men?
how do you define an odor,
like that of coal or incense?
how do you distil two paints,
those of sinners and saints?
Where do I mend my canvas
or a palette if it breaks?
what if all colors disappear
of fantasy, dreams, and fear?
Is confusion a diffusion
of black with white?
Is illusion the same
as reality set aflame?
If hope is a bright silver
and glittering desires gold,
what color are expectations
shattering without justification?
Pray tell if I find this out
what help will that be?
To all creation his own creator
and no color greater than He.
