“Crimson Underneath” by David Harris

Two men of two colors,

Up in arms,

With one another

Over the other’s skin.
 

Yet from their bruised heads

Neither one can see

Their spilt crimson

Is the same shade.
 

The fight presses on.

Both men nearly blind,

By their crimson or by rage?

Neither man can tell.
 

Can you?
