red. 
please don't take this the wrong way,

because i would hate to get you mad,

but i do like you very small.
there have been times it was helpful

to have you as large as the sky 

to fill stadiums for me.

because of you
i didn't have to say a black word

to exes and should have been exes

bosses lovers friends

but for now i like you itsy bitsy in my rooms

my little red button

so mighty with so much 
altoid muscle

you can knock over any green with envy jerk

with just a glance, raised brow

or give the kiss of death
with just a peck on the cheek

i love you in my corner

a cube in my paint box

a thread in my dress

a feather in my cap.

be mine red

you little drop

of life

love you 

red
