Wall

Peeling paint. Faded patches. Mossy corners
I stand. Braving time.
Layers of paint. Through time.
One after another. Paint on the wall.

Accumulated history of thought. Pain. Grief.
Painted. Splashed. Smeared.
Painted over and over again. Time after time.
Each having an imprint. In every layer of Paint.

Peel. Scrub. Tear. Rip.
Pierce to remove the paint. Scathe through the layers.
Paint on my wall. The colour of your grief, joy, longing, nothing.
The brick on the wall is my heart. Bighearted to sock the splash.

Paint on me. Make the cerebral connect.
Through the ink of the colour you shape on me.
Splash the colour of anger, pain, rage, scream, echo.
Touch the paint of tranquillity. The wet walls speak.

Touch the wall of time. Touch with compassion.
The beauty of time caught still on the wall.
Opens to you your canvas. Seek yourself.
I will hold you in compassion. Paint on me. Pour. Splash. Spill. Splatter.

Wall-in the colour of your joy, trust, fear, panic, wrath and rapture.
Purple, Blue, Cyan and Turquoise.
Cobalt, Earth Yellow, Magenta, Red and Black.
Ocean Blue, Zaffre, Arsenic, Ash Grey and Sand Dune.
