Purple Patches (Free verse) by skaskowski
Have I gone insane?
have I lost my head?
the streetlight was
off-white,
I saw red instead.
Through the
Fog of a stupor
I stooped low
And slurred "Oh,
I'd rather you dead
than asleep in my head."
A blue dismal memory
as you
threw yourself into me.
Flashes of pain,
purple patches from punches.
Bloodshot eyes and poison ivy.
A red itchy memory
as I
flew through air.
Flashes of light
left marks in my eyes
as I kicked you goodbye.
