Defintion #360 Outside the line

by Marlyn Exconde

cool blue-hot orange

outside-inside-beyond edge

dare discovery!

Outside

My cheek rests warm
on father’s breast;
his heart beat shakes my ear.
His stubble whispers through my hair
his breath blows fear from here.

He puts me down
to take a call:
I stand on solid feet
outside his heat
outside his lap
outside all right
outside here on my own.

Light Outside Out O

Light Outside Out O

Call
Beckon;
Push
Quicken;
Toward the crystal pane.

Dark
Within;
Sun
Without
Tweeting gathers speed.

Climb
Hang;
Teeter
Wobble
Fall, submerged in light.

Pink
Purple;
Fuscia
Chartreuse
Rainbow me moves out.

3D
Anime;
Chuckling
Child
Magic in the touch!
