observations on a nylon flag
Author: Magpie Poet  PM
i was stuck behind some grandpa with one of those flag on a sticks waving out his window. while he went 20 in a 50 no pass zone. so i composed this in my head to avoid road rage in a bad way. (he made me late for work...)

On a nylon flag
Red white blue.
These colors don't run.
They bleed.
Put them in the sun,
purest critical light—
They fade.
Rose ivory wedgewood.
Expose to sand and dust,
They grow dingy.
Pink grey baby's breath.
Porcelain fine memories
With reshaped meaning.
