The Colours of Prison

Pious isolation was the shade of her cage

Rays of fractured light assailed in form of

Impetuous greed descending the walls

Spoiling the candle wood floors

Oozing decay ravaged partitions where

Nightmares hung in pallid frames

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This was inspired after reading Sean Patrick’s latest Top Story 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

And began life as this (before I turned it into an acrostic);

The walls were the colour of isolation

Splattered in the virus of greed

Oozing from above and below

Decay peeled through the sides

Spoiling the candle wood floors

With deadly particles

of bitterness
