every time
a c o l o r
catches my eye
(which is very often)
in my mind
i instantly analyze it
break it down into its primary basics
then reconstruct it
in my mind with paint.
for example,
what first i took as pink,
upon further gazing
is really more of an orange.
start with white
add |this| amount of yellow
then this tiny minuscule
shard of (red)
together, white and red make pink.
yellow and red make orange.
pink and orange are different
points on
a spectrum.
and you can see how
close
orange and
p i n k are.
and how so very
far away.
and then that
blue-purple light
juxtaposed -
that is another thing
entirely.
