Tangerine Nights

No. 5/No. 22 by Mark Rothko

tangerine dust gone
awry hindering red
white groves danced

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

tangerine nights gone awry
expose psyche
no thoughts obscure


Found this poetic form - Rothko at Mariacristina. How to Write a Rothko:
1. A Rothko (poem) can only be written while standing in front of a Rothko (painting).
2. A Rothko is three lines, three words per line.
3. Three of these nine words must be colors, and their position in the poem must be a tic-tac-toe.
4. Like all rules of poetry, break at your own risk.
