the palette bleeds
the palette
bleeds.
only red,
only orange,
gold,
the delirious artist dipping
brush into blood,
smearing red over trees
the palette bleeds.
green mixes with red,
trails of brown splattering,
sapling
after sapling
the palette bleeds.
his burning eyes
scorch holes in the sky,
the cold wind comes
down
down
down
the palette bleeds.
only red,
only orange,
gold,
falling leaves,
falling leaves
the palette bleeds.
the tears are here,
the tears are here
the palette bleeds.
