the poem-writer's understanding of primary colors

the preschool child with its first

set of crayons will try to eat them.

red was a primary choice and blue

to smear the trees and animals.

as with the Fauves

the child’s a wild beast!–– its hyperactive

attraction to the uncommon placement of color

has a tendency to breach the lines of logic.

ah! the recurring

birth of the open-form!

the question is:

is this a couplet?
