“People are strange when you’re a stranger”                                – Jim Morrison I’m a freak of nature. I have for my eyes One blue, one green. And my eyes They talk to me. They tell me stuff Like “you’re strange, You have one green eye And the other blue.” They would point to people And say “see, see, That is what normal Looks like. Deep black eyes. Brown eyes, Red.” Red? Where? That one’s Definitely an addict. Such strange eyes they are Telling me that I’m strange When they are the ones In different colors. Yes I’m a freak of nature. I may not see the blue in things Or the green. Colors, it seems, Are mere prismic reflections Of memories. The green, the blue, The blood-shot red, The normal and the strange, They are all in white. The wheel never stops spinning And the spectrum of voices Are all mine.
