A little Gray Building

48

Blue tastes like frost on a cold day

Like a swimming pool with the strongest taste of chlorine in the world

Like a cold day where you can taste the coldness in the air

And then again, it tastes like a warm hug or a wave of warm dark water with enough salt to fill a bucket

Or the shivers you get when you see something truly terrifying

Or the taste of sadness that’s sometimes in the air

Or perhaps even the blue ink of a pen that will never stop writing

Or even the blue of a warm coat that has slowly dissolved over the years.

Blue
