If I Were A Line
If I were a line. I think I’d be curled, billowed and swirled, and slowly unfurled.I’d sweep over a page, if I were a line, with the wind in my hair, and my heart laid bare. That’s what I’d be, if I were a line. If I were a spot. I’d be round and fat (now how about that?), like an old, well-fed cat. I’d have drizzled and dropped, if I were a spot, pittering and pattering with a slight hint of smattering. That’s what I’d be, if I were a spot. If I were a color. I’d be a rich red, like a painted deathbed or a sword to the head. I’d lunge for macabre, if I were a colour, made oh-so dramatic, my thoughts all sporadic. That’s what I’d be, if I were a colour. But I am a human, so pale and flawed, and easily bored, (wishing I was adored). I twist and bend. My shape is no other, than the one I can be. My colour, it changes almost constantly, because I am a human: a human – that’s me. Although, If I tried to depict myself in a shape - or a line - that would be just fine (If I could find such a line). 0 comment(s)
