black the sky above so far reaching, but disinclined to become involved in petty disputes that night. red glowing the fire of sugar cane cleansing, smoke thick, billowing greasily black clouds covering angry thoughts, brought to bear in closed fists. beating sense into her until, red flowed down cheek and chin absorbed by skin and hair and the little black dress he bought for her to wear, with red stilletto high,high heels. lipstick too for pouty lips, now black and blue. red her thoughts as she lay beaten, but not broken on the warm black asphalt tar, leaching red the cigarette end showed as slowly she stood, fixated black the hilt of the knife protruding from the white dress-shirt red the lifeblood spreading black dress walking to red porsche, his last view ..... ........fading to black.

black and red
