Life in Technicolour

Squash yourself small, girl

tones a colour-drained world

packed away

saving itself for a Rainy Day

like Christmas ornaments in dusty boxes.

I stand on edge

wondering

what would happen

if I flew that cardboard cage?

Brush off the dust, and in a puff, a Life in Technicolour glows.
