Red the Imposter

poem by: Martyn Grindrod
Written on Dec 25, 2016

Red is Romance 
It's God is Isis 
Red is Hell 
Identity Crisis 

Red is sexy 
Temptress alluring 
Red is Tempestuous 
Bloodthirsty uncaring 

Red is lust 
lipstick tempting 
Red is Devil 
Evil ,uncaring 

Red is Sunset 
Heat giving , warming 
Red is Sunrise 
Seafaring warning 

Tell us your secret Red 
Speak your mind 
are Cruel or are you kind 

Thank you
