Challenge
Taste Colors, hear colors
Write something, whether it be story, poem, or something else, about how you would experience having the senses mixed up. I have synesthesia, which means I see emotions as colors,have an oversensitized empathy, associate words and numbers with colors, taste colors, and different music is a different color. It is a unique experience, and I'm curious to see how others would see it. Make me see, feel, hear, taste, touch things your way.

they broke from their miraculous chains
and became orange from blue, the new
smell of citrus and basil was infectious and
it choked me with such care, so tender
as it wrapped around replacing their chains
with an unfamiliar forced encumberment. I
lie on the ground ponderously, making love
to the small things in life while chasing after
the big ones. The smell lingers and passes me
gracefully as I acknowledge it.
