Lady Red

My favorite person or "color" was the Lady Red. Her acceptance of abuse came to a halt and she knew that she couldn't take it anymore. Even though her obsession for this man was strong, she was able to be stronger and make it go away. Her line "I found God in myelf/and I loved her/I loved her fiercely" has so much meaning behind it. She found what she needed most-personal acceptance and love. The love was so fierce for herself that she found the strength to be done with him. The part where she says that she has been watering the plant since she knew him shows that she continually gave of herself but never received anything back. She then continues to dance to keep from crying and and dying. Her inner self is battling, but her will is stronger.
