Rainbow head




Pre 9am
Main road mono

She passes me on the
Inside
With striped rainbow hair
Rainbow head
Outside and in no doubt

And other colours
Maybe every one

Up and down her legs
Backpack
Eye shadow
Mid-twenties I guess
Unconcerned about opinions

Defying the locale
Grey puddles en route

Laying still
Unreflective
While the red yellow
Pink green
Orange purple, blue shine

Not crazy
Or maybe just crazy enough

Finally
She turns a corner
The streets are greyed
I am tired and lazy and broken and
So
I count her as my
fuck you
To the world for today.
