Please don't wear red tonight.
Red is a colour that I love
A colour that I loathe
Red is the colour of love and my dreams
White roses they make no more.
Red is the stiff tea
Brewed at the teashop on the street
And painted red is the
Clown's nose tip.
The matador swinging a scrap of red
Drives all bulls into a rage
Luscious lips wine red
Utter sweet nothings
Promises of love and sweet bondings.
Do not see red
Not tonight nor evermore
Red is the colour of blood
The universal colour of gore.
