a color was a thought of painting
and poetry and literature
sadly
my son took a crayon
held it in the air it was flesh
said right on the paper wrapper
and asked
dad, this says flesh
and I see all kinds of color
in people,
why?
Why what?
I asked trying to narrow his
question down,
He said , it is pink,
it don't look like my skin
or yours
and I wondered
if I drew a man
do I have to use this to
color him with?
I answered , I don't know if
correctly,
no son,
use all the crayons
grab as many as you can
make a rainbow
man,
that would be better
