RED

fire
🔥🔥🔥



DEAR RED,

A is for apple.
You are a character.
This is a mark. a symbol. a sign.
It is going to come to an end.
The end will be a beginning.
This is it.
You hear incendiary drum 
beat by heart.You are its
core. This is for 
ever
I can see
rite
through 
mouth hand
cauterized 
right 
down
through 
middle.  

Curtains
rise like sun star.
You make a killing
rising petals to fall
as every Thing will
fall
into its right place.  
 
Grains
of sand in hour 
glass 
fall 
@ same speed
as farmhouse falls.

Ruby candy stuck to   
roof mouth house 
holds hands & 
again 
& 
again
&
again
curtains 
fall.

I will never 
remember 
my birth.
 
Fallen.

I will never 
remember 
my death.
 
Falling.

You 
have no more
time 
for me.

If you read 
this 
letter of letters, 
blood seeds
won’t bleed.

Not ever. 
 
Without fear,
fire spreads fast.

Fire spreads 

insanely 

wildly

fast.


Eternally,

@Muppoet

RED RAINBOW CONNECTIONS:

I don't know if I need to provide examples anymore. This season steals it! 
the theatre 
& stage curtain are both all as red as the inside of Kermit's mouth. 
& Chef has a new red stove
& there's red fire spreading around this season, including the wardrobe!  
& it's impossible not to notice... 
& I challenge anyone and everyone to tell me that I'm mistaken.
