Black.

Blacker than I saw it before, it is now.
Darker than I imagined it.
Seedier and dirtier.
Closer- more personal- more mine.
More conscious.
More hideous.
More condemning.
It has been brought out in to the light.
I can see it.
It is washed away- no residue.

I'm left gaping.

Did any one thing spur the poem?

LOVE YOU!
