Defiance in color
Rose-colored glasses are not the problem
but a temporary solution in avoiding a sort of Catatonic state.
A source, a lesser ambitious soul can
hold and twist like a kaleidoscope of denial.
Just the cheerfulness of the rose color itself suggests that the situation
be viewed as feminine, soft, not to be taken seriously.
So ask yourself this; is the trance behind the hue, unconscious or
otherwise a brilliant piece of trickery exhibited for pure secretive pleasure?
A roses thorns are not a fragile decoration but a visually sharp reminder
of the pain anything hidden behind beauty is capable of.
