Oh its gone beyond the days of black and white t.v.'s
Newsflash:
"This just in a meteor has just hit the south Pacific...
I repeat a meteor has just hit the south Pacific...
The effects of this meteor has made every human being colorblind
Literally no one can see but black and white!"
Mass hysteria happens....
Cars backed up everywhere..
Planes grounded
Schools CLOSED
Internet SUSPENDED!
Workers sent home
President under secret protection
People screaming on the streets;
I stand there in shock; unable to see clearly...
seeing everything in black and white no grays purples nothing.
I run outside;
People running around like drunken fools...
Lost
SUDDENLY everyone I long to see appear
in front of me
?
Is this an affect of the meteor too?
No;
You take my hand
yes you my dearest loyal friend
There are tears in your eyes...
you can't stop crying,
I am so confused...
I ask you what is going on
Its been so long....
You take my hand and walk me
into your secret place
No one else in the world knows this
you tell me
ok.....;
........ well here let me show you;
........ the only place where we can see color
deep in your pocket you pull out
Oh and its as purple as day shining bright;
The color of red and blue mixed together
Just purple....
cause blood is blue within you, but as soon as it hits
Oxygen its red
sooo..
You and I we see the purple...
the only other color besides black and white!
Author notes
1) If the entire world was black and white and another color, which color would you want it to be? (No PW)

What ..........
You really jacked me up with this one. Yes, you had to be running low on sleep w/ this one. This wasn't one of my favorites from you. We're still cool though.
I'll continue reading your work. Your next piece has to dominate this one. -

I am sorry Tony it does have a meaning to it in a wierd kinda way though.

Different
Much more different than I usually read and comment on. But it was captivating in that once your start, you have to read on to see what will happen. When the end comes it becomes clear. Good write.
