Something about me
I am color confusion.
Are they silver?
Opaque?
I am a tapioca pearl
…
Once fleeting, I arrive in tremendous glory
Yellow to violet
An ephemeral sob that grasps the air
…
A non-binary soul tucked
Away
Behind
Always a but, when it comes to arguing my identity
…
I speak in green
Yell in
Red and I
wait,
beg for
Different hues to hug me home
…
Society sees my wavelength
Three eight zero-
Seven four zero
But baby I am
Ultraviolet and infrared along with
Cyan
…
Something about me
Orange sunsets
Blue moonlight reflect validity
Off my skin
I am fluid
And you make
My liquid sting.
