The Colour Red.

Con’s a Celebrity. I live with him.
I’m nobody..but he knows that.
It suits him that I stay that way.

His tripod’s on the left. His pictures on the walls.
The plant is mine ...it doesn’t have much light...
It does it’s best.

The bird cage overhead.....the bird is small bird
Sings little song . It’s feathers are a mess.
It’s always been like that.

On TV… the grotesque.
A man...a girl...what’s going on ?
I’m watching it with Con.
It is his choice.

It is the Colour Red.
