Roses are red, that much is true, but violets are purple, not fucking blue.
I have been waiting for this post all my life.
They are indeed purple,
But one thing you’ve missed:
The concept of “purple”
Didn’t always exist.Some cultures lack names
For a color, you see.
Hence good old Homer
And his “wine-dark sea.”A usage so quaint,
A phrasing so old,
For verses of romance
Is sheer fucking gold.So roses are red.
Violets once were called blue.
I’m hugely pedantic
But what else is new?
