Prism:Line / Prison:Bar

Prism:Line
Prison:Bar

Please tell me who coloured you
all those shades of violence.
Bruise purple
and tough pink?
Tough skin
and bruised pride?

Tell me who made you strong,
enough that you now don't cry.

Please tell me who coloured you
all those shades of pride.
Smolder red
and sturdy blue?
Sturdy ego
and smolder heart?

Tell me now who crippled both
so you now can't move; can't stride.

-Matthew Koutzun
