Color

Dip your toe in color,
let the sensation spread
through your feet and up —
nothing stops the flood of light

No suction is required, no raking,
rubbing or coercing the color in —
it reaches your head and fingertips
in an instant,
you can feel its hum,
you can taste the pinks and purples
on your tongue

You can’t just walk away,
picture snapped —
you have been changed.
You’ll feel it in your steps
throughout the day.
