Analysis of Blue
Ronald Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)
If I see the shadows peering
Will it see me comparing?
Like demons to angels?
Or, avocados to cake?
And, if I think hard,
What will I make?
Good or evil?
Or, yin and yang?
Even karma?
Is ringing a doorbell
Nice or foolhardy?
Well, if all of this is true
Will we be good or evil
Before we turn blue?
