Usurper



I think your colors are the garish ones.
I think they suit you best.
Vivid, unaware of subtlety, unburdened by nuance.
Each a wavelength that washes the eye
in a bath of absolute
that leaves you dazzled, bewildered by pastel
but bright enough to clash and burn.

Assertion is so much stronger than refutation.
