Pick and Choose

A poem from 2019


Two contrasting, favourite colours
An anomaly
A brain wired to contradictions
Hottest hell and coldest ice


This is not me
A plain and simple man
Prone to the middle of the road
Playing it safe


I taste the colour of love
I taste the colour of roses
I taste the colour of blood
I taste the colour of danger


I taste the colour of the deepest sea
I taste the colour of Chelsea FC
I taste the colour of gas flames
I taste the colour of BB King’s licks


A mental aberration
A false dichotomy
I defy your enneagram
I despise your pigeonhole
