The idea of color,
whatever that means,
is something I long for
in my widest of dreams.
To see what I hear about,
when I listen to screams
of the sun on my face
and the wind through the trees.
Being blind is a challenge.
Saying "cut" with no scenes.
But it's something I live with
just like the machines.
I've got hope for the future
and all of its schemes.
I've got faith in my Maker,
whatever It deems.
If the whole world stopped splaying
inelegant themes
and I felt how you saw it
would it make me serene?
Or would it hurt me to know that
all these colors that gleam,
once you see them,
they're nothing, unnoticed, routine.
They're as worthless as fresh air.
An end to a means.
I can't help but notice.
It just seems to be
The idea of color is too scary for me.
