Colored Section

Not much color in this colored section of St. Louis
Everything seemed sepia tone
Splashes of red, sometimes yellow
Shocked the mundane

Things were more vibrant at night
When dreams took hold and imaginations ran wild
Fear reached the spectrum
And color became the soother

We were locked in dullness
Accused of striking against the normal order
We wanted to see the rainbows
Just like everyone else

Above our tarred rooftops
And brown flattened yards
We wanted color
In this colored section
