Illustration by K.A. Smith
Orange areas on my skin... reality— the areas are brown, areas, tan. Am I an animal? Am I sand? Will I be extinct just as I stand? Am I wanted more now than then? So precious— orange, a has-been. Waiting, waiting here, another orange area restin'. Nothing, nothing, nothing again. Thank you for reading! Which part of the poem resonates with you? Share your thoughts. Please leave a comment.
