Red is the colour of pouring down on the cold hard road.
Green is the colour of the Australian Army in action.
White is the colour of bones sticking through my skin.
Yellow is the colour the Simpsons that I watch every evening.
Orange is the colour of a blazing fire that kills when people try to put it out.
Blue is the colour of the Australian flag waving in the wind to salute.
Purple is the colour of my face suffocating in a plastic bag.
