Rhyme Scheme: ABC DDE FGH IJK LGM NOP

Tell me what you see in itA
The pine tree like a Rorschach blotB
black against the orange lightC
-
Plant an orange pumpkin patchD
which at twelve will quaintly hatchD
nine black mice with ebon coachE
-
or walk into the orange and makeF
a devil's cataract of blackG
obscure god's eye with corkscrew fleckH
-
put orange mistress half in sunI
half in shade until her skinJ
tattoos black leaves on tangerineK
-
Read black magic or holy bookL
or lyric of love in the orange and blackG
till dark is conquered by orange cockM
-
but more pragmatic than all thisN
say how crafty the painter wasO
to make orange and black ambiguousP
