He was blue
because his friends
were called
reds and pinkos
by yellow journalists
funded by plutocratic
blackmailers
who had caused
brownouts to achieve
power
and taken over
corporations
with greenmailers.
But the gold light of
the dawnsun inspired
Quixote to try
again.

Because of the critique of Sullen which
was valid, writer took out a line.
SHIP MASTS
the 3 crosses of calvary
have become ship masts
sailing us to joy
*
NOT A WHIRLPOOL
the gentle rain's
concentric circles
will not swirl
into a whirlpool
I thought your critique was valid and I thank you..
it prompted me to remove the line
I think this write is clever as it turns color into metaphor. However, the line "But then he remembered that God was in control" totally sucks the air right out of it's lungs. It seems not to follow the rest of your message.
