My favorite color is red
But if I'm being honest
I am a shade of light blue
An anti-solidarist
I am calm, not sad
I worry but can be content
I flow like the aqua-hued ocean
Always have the purest intent
The sky is my serenity
I am easy-going
Birds are comforted by my presence
But I'm capable of growing
I love to be a passionate red
Perhaps, I am deep down inside
I'm blue and red; Purple!
Then again, why should I decide?
Who says I must be one color?
Who says I can't be blue and red?
I can change, depending on the mood
From a peaceful blue to a fiery red.
Thanks for reading my poem. Check out my other musings.

You Think I Am Broken
Introduction This is inspired by my situation on Vocal, the Bouke de Vries work and the Screaming Trees song. I know that for many others, they would have walked away from Vocal, but I am taking it as a challenge. I get the feeling that Vocal moderators and others don't want me here (just my imposter syndrome paranoia), but I know a lot of people do, and obviously, some on Vocal do value me, so I will not be giving up.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

Blue, for me. I'm like a Bolt from the Blue. ⚡♥️⚡
Yes! Why be one thing? But, like you, I think I might be blue with red rising.
Lovely personal revelation, great words
My favorite color is blue.
My favourite colour is red too! Too often I find myself blue and I then strive to be red. Loved your poem!
