Crayola, brick red,
tearing open a new pack--
our favorite color.
Rebels, scraping, up,
indifferent to lines, down--
our favorite color.
Paper became ill fit
bodies became canvases--
our favorite color.
Our bodies, our tools,
crayons never left our side--
our favorite color.
She built a train track.
It only took seven years--
my favorite color.
"Follow the straight line"
Giving up on her sweet dream--
her favorite color.
I looked down at her
letting the brick red stick drop--
my favorite color.
It's in the casket,
but brick red forever is
our favorite color.
