It's Still Life

Yellow Brick

How do you endure it, 
that colour of jaundice brick. 
Brick should be earthy, 
and red, warm as a sunset, 

not sick as a liver.  

It's the earth, he replied. 
The clay is yellow. 

An answer, pure and simplified.

The front windows were  
reflecting stray clouds 
and an amber sunset, 

and it filled the horizon 
like a drug's warm flood.
