peace or passion (from colors)

what is this human mammal?
soul or flesh?

I think we are born
into this aliveness
but I dont know
where (or if) awareness
starts or ends
in blue or red

what I've seen of heaven
is green with earthly life
and red with human passion
human need
human fulfilment

mangoes
melting on the tounge
and you melt into me

why not
when death's black looms
imminent

flesh ends

we are
forever ending

(in little
deadlines with
heaven blue
afters
in their skies)

peace, blue peace, away from here.
is that not the most carnal desire
of an anguished soul?


flesh ends
or
soul forever

I don't think we know
the concept
of either
does it matter?
