I was in love with an artist <\/p>\n\n\n\n
An Abstract Expressionist <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who predictably owned a smart loft <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In New York City <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We met when he painted my walls sky blue<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or at least I thought he had <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As all colours are black white and grey to me <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I had lost my sense of colour <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When Flight 143 crashed over Arizona<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My memories remembered some early colours <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But that was all as nothing else had travelled <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I had retained my sight black white and grey <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Which I was eternally grateful for<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My disability did not really inhibit me <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I lived a normal life and had a rewarding job<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dirk told me that he had different coloured eyes <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I believed him although he was something of a joker<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like many girls I was obsessed with my hair <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Short long straight curly with a fringe or without <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the colour of my hair remained constant <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I never changed the colour although tempted <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wear any colour as long as it is black <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I think that it was Henry Ford<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was my favourite quote <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As it was so simple <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In June Dirk and I are visiting Cape Cod<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Followed by his third at the Blake Galleries <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am looking forward to this event <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But regret that I have been robbed of its full impact<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although I do imagine the magazine in my dreams
