Full Colour - Kathryn Williams

In full colour in front of everyone

You drained out

The only part of you that was any fun

You’re a late starter

You like everyone

Every dog on the street knows that people

Are a disappointment

People like you and me could leave this world

And go unnoticed in another

People like you and me could leave this world

And go unnoticed just the same as before

We faced each other

Breathing into bellies

Wondering as we entwined

Like a creeper back on itself

How we would separate

A small pad of paper

Holds the puzzles to all of my riddles

It stands out of my pocket and falls into the road

People like you and me could leave this world

And go unnoticed in another
