Some people are like slinkies, they are pretty much useless but can't help but laugh when they tumble down the stairs.

I stay here
Waiting
Waiting
For you
For the color
To splash
Onto my surface
I stay here
Collecting
Collecting
Dust
I dream
Of
The tickle
Of the brush
You move
Up
And down
I dream
Of
Red
Blue
Green
Pink
Purple
Scarlet
Indigo
Lime
Teal
Aqua
Violet
Oh
How
I wish
I
Was
Red
Blue
Green
Pink
Purple
Scarlet
Indigo
Lime
Teal
Aqua
Violet
But
Still
I
Am
Just
White
