First and last pages coloured differently,
black the other, white the other
and inbetween i'm still colouring
a subtle grey im working on currently
heavy with rains i've coloured the clouds,
now what colour should i use for the thundering?
I flip to the next page and i flip back,
how could i forget to colour the raging wind,
and the ships it has wrecked
the tree that lightning just struck, should i colour it black?
Or better yet let me leave it uncoloured, why express its scars when it has already suffered its worst
Three pages later i'm still colouring.
from the three pages i left one blank,
not that i wanted to but because i had no clue as to what colour to give to death
Or should i go back and colour it too the colour of birth?
