Purple had always been my favorite color Knuckles struck my eye socket and The sudden pressure left bulges like Two ripe and juicy summer plums Beside my nose And through the fissures in my Fruity peepers Swollen and dripping with tears I could make out his shoulders Still hovering above me Fists still clenched I backed toward the wall In all sense of the phrase Searching for the security of Drywall on my palms behind me Darkness closed in He stepped in front of the light And I could hear his breathing Growing nearer And I whipped my thoughts Back to purple.

Purple had always been my favorite color Knuckles struck my eye socket and The sudden pressure left bulges like Two ripe and juicy summer plums Beside my nose And through the fissures in my Fruity peepers Swollen and dripping with tears I could make out his shoulders Still hovering above me Fists still clenched I backed toward the wall In all sense of the phrase Searching for the security of Drywall on my palms behind me Darkness closed in He stepped in front of the light And I could hear his breathing Growing nearer And I whipped my thoughts Back to purple.
