3 Poems for the Pisces (1)

'When someone is worth knowing me'

You are indigo

Just like me

Wikipedia will tell you what

astrology might

in an attempt to turn a

cosmic mistake into a trope

The color we glow fits into

And while it is an attempt

It is not quite

You are indigo

And patient with a nervousness

That can only be understood

By empathy

And know

As I do

You are indigo

As the curiosity that moves the

Tide tables in

And out

And clear as the salt water

Flowing down cheeks

In vulnerable failure

That you know as

A feeling before

An imposition to get through

Like everything else

When we were born

The color of the room

Turned the deep blue of

The ones who listen

Closely

Always

For the hum of a similar hue

Nearby

You are indigo

Just like me

We could tell between stacks

Of published platitudes

That the hum of the blue hue

Was nearby

And for that I am you

You are me

We are a deep blue we

Floating through the

Incompletely defined

In wait of the next wave of

Our indigo sea

You are indigo

Just like me

Speaking to a sea of

ROY G B - V

And me

Of the studied tried and true

Ways to be a chameleon

In a life aquatic

That speaks only in a dense grey

Foggy eb

And flow

You are indigo

Just Like me

Smelling a sunrise

Coming tomorrow and tasting

The rain drops like it

Was yesterday

The night when a dark green

Broke our blue black skies

And flushed my cheeks

The feeling of an electric

Shock of only hurt

In low tide and a long way from

Anything

You are indigo

Just like me

So I’ll be seeing you in

The depths of the lake

Where the dark loud silent

Whispers and anthem of a me

that is you

and a drifting school of

Thought full of you

That is indigo

like me
