Color is Pride: The True Colors

Color is a lie.

It’s in the eye of the beholder.

It moves, melds and bleeds together,

In a swirling agitation we’re all part of.

Where does one color end,

And another begin?

The world is not black and white.

It’s your canvas.

Own one; then mix it up.

Blend, mould and MARRY it.

Join the kaleidoscope.

A spectrum of perspective.

Color outside the lines.

Burn bright, fast.

Don’t just see color,

Feel blue;

See red;

See through rose glasses;

Be green with envy.

And tickled pink.

Be the black sheep.

Vivid,

Vibrant,

Iridescent,

Dazzling,

Shining,

Shimmering,

A rainbow ray of color.

Be proud.

Be true.

Be color.
