The colours
The sky made internal.
Fire and blood, made visible.
Value solidified into light.
The weight of all absence.
All colours held in suspension.
Life as a colour.
The colour closest to light itself.
The colour of endings that are also beginnings.
The rarest colour in nature, and the costliest to make.
The colour of what is alive and newly arrived.
The world without commitment to a feeling.
The colour of the ground beneath everything.
Blue distilled to its coolest, most crystalline form.
A colour that does not exist in the spectrum — only in the mind.
A colour that shouldn't exist, screaming to be seen.
The colour that gives back what it receives.
Blue pressed into darkness until it becomes something else.
The colour of water over paradise.
Red with nowhere left to go but deeper.
The first colour humanity ever made its own.
