Courage is Infrared

Courage is not as bright,

bold and beautiful as

red roses and escutcheons;

but it bears the stains

of infrared agony and failure,

etched into the hippocampus.

It lies behind the sturdy cages

of inanimate insecurities

and disordered deprecation,

that pierce through the stone cold

yet a vulnerable piece of flesh-

smeared in the color of its name.

Courage is not red;

for the spectrum of visible light,

can't withstand it's wavelength

and the blinding fire of failure

that breathes life into courage,

is only infrared discoloration

of the spirit that reigns,

the infallible flames of fate.
