the painter pulled out her artist brush from deep within her drawer and started paint her wrist with the shade of red, but the paint only faded on her skin. the frustrated painter decided to dip the brush deeper, hoping for a new color, a darker shade, anything but of faded red. the painter's canvas ate the red paint, puked it out, and washed itself. the brush  were evident, but no traces of the shade. perhaps, she was no longer combusting any color. she became a mere black and white. monochrome. dead. faded.
