OctPoWriMo 2019: Day 19: Purple

Purple feels like my deep dreams
When I'm wrapped in royal mystery
Purple feels like I've been redeemed

Purple feels like the wildest scenes
From my debauched history
Purple feels like my deep dreams

When inspiration bathes me in lavender beams
So bright that they should blister me
Purple feels like I've been redeemed

My purple prose soothes my soul's tortured screams
Though my detractors scorn my work bitterly
Purple feels like my deep dreams

Purple bruise in my heart which can't be seen
By those who sneer that my dreams are frippery
Purple feels like I've been redeemed

I fade into my purple dreams
And all the world fades for me
Purple feels like my deep dreams
Purple feels like I've been redeemed

Anyone who knows me at all ought to be massively unsurprised that I'm dedicating this one to Jimi.
