Jazz and Coffee

A first post on a new blog owes it to itself to have at least a smidgen of symbolism. Here's a poem by siaunuren, a good friend of mine, who's poetry I've only recently discovered. Visit her site, there's some good stuff there!

- art class-

they said, we want bright colours

and we want the sun yellow
and the sky blue
and the flowers red

but what if i don't see it like them

and i want the sun bleeding
and the sky jaundiced
and the flowers cold

i'll colour it my way but
they'll tell me i messed up, screwed up, fucked up.
and then some.

ho-hum.
