Human Consumption

The vibrant blue paint on the walls seems

almost like that emblematic Technicolor

blue.  I've had the blues, but they didn't

look like these.  The house constricts--

the ceiling seems to dip towards my head

closing in on me.  I fly.  Back in Jazzy's room,

I notice, with humor, a label on the spice:

"Not intended for human consumption."
