A Plain White Building

I am a plain white building

not a skyscraper high

a little splash, a little dust

can make me dyed.

You can paint me in various colours

yellow, red and blue

hide the white below the layers

but what you see would only be grey hues.

I am a plain white building

wih all windows boarded and broken

there is no exit, there is no enterance;

Unnamed, an anonymous token.

Not a skyscraper high

I can't even see through the fog

There are imprints of clouds and lightening

But no clear blue sky at all.

A little splash, a little dust

can cause my whiteness a stain

Imagine the world of stains I would see

While you enjoy the heavy rains.

I am a plain white building,

And I keep repeating

Among the cloudy greys and bright rays

A decolourized four-walled being.
