red and blue

 
you changed  
 
i remember  
when you were a boy  
your music  
wound me up then released me  
like a dance machine  
 
your smile  
 
dynamite  
 
plastic  
 
explosive  
 
fake  
 
when you caught alight  
blue and red flames  
[smooth hurricane]  
rose like a crown  
 
were the scars  
meant for a time processor  
a permanent marker  
hidden within african roots  
 
when you lost the taste for life  
 
you changed  
from red  
to blue  
to white
