gray,
shades of black.
the lack of color is cold.
only she has color,
only her color has warmth,
only her warmth has life-
her life moves ankle-deep
through gray powder.
the powder covers
living backs,
flowers, trees, birds
and the singled roofs
of dark houses.
the sky:
one shade of gray
except far on the horizon
where it is black,
one shade of gray
with gray powder falling,
cold, bleak,
forever
gray
