Polychromatic View

A curtain, verdant green
is draped to block
our roadside view

A backhoe, lemon yellow
claws the soil
I wonder who

This plot, russet
is readied for
someone I never knew

A body, whitish gray
gone except for our memories
fictional, some true

An exit door, black
opens one day at a time
this threshold we pass through

Out of sight, transparent
beyond touch, beyond time
an unfathomable venue

We race along a curtain, colors of flesh
oblivious until it falls open
exposing love in an infinite Hue.
