orange

again one of yours easy to RL but difficult to comment poems anna

i like how challenge the reader to wait and pause
life happens and the colour of the spectrum
we see when we deal with the crests and troughs of the wave
love the dash of that indescribable,addictive  sweet-bitter in your s3

Orange is a very interesting color and seems to be an oxymoron in meaning. First, it is very symbolic of happiness ( being it's a mix of red stimulation and cheerful yellow ); and, second, it also represents 'gut reaction, which counters our mental yellow or reaction red. So we get all the good qualities of the color combination without the bad. . .as long as used in moderation. I think a lighter and rose are perfect accents; Fire and Earth. Very representative.

It's also been proven to life a depressed state from loss or grief. It's the optimistic color, and everyone should have some orange in their lives!  am in the process of redecorating and I've selected sage and orange as my main palette.  

I thought this read very well, but would strongly suggest a comma where indicated below.

think of you ( , ) but then everything  
does; i bought an orange lighter

While this is a rather somber poem of nostalgic weave, it's uplifting nonetheless with just the reference to orange!

ah thank you a comma would make it smoother. however i like a little jagged in my poems so i will consider other marks

i love the obsession with a color and the metaphor of toxic pollen...very rich imagery.

i have two other poems also called orange

also you would be surprised at how little is metaphor in my writing but i don’t mind it being read as such

well then consider this an ask of permission to use toxic pollen as a metaphor elsewhere haha

i suppose you are right though...much pollen is in fact orange:

i would hope you don’t need my permission; all the best artists steal x

Love your orange series. The first line in itself deserves RT.  
 
Also the only poet I know who can use the word 'pornhub' poetically...re from previous orange poem.  
 
edit:also 'harrogate'!

thank you but i am sure you could do it too
