tangerine

is like red shuttering yellow at ultra-speed, like a blinking of red lids over yellow eyes.

The color tangerine is a butterfly with red wings and yellow body. Tangerine gives the effect of red shuttering yellow at ultra-speed, like a blinking of red lids over yellow eyes. Both colors mix together in orange but keep appearing and disappearing in tangerine as if they were the red and yellow firefly lids of the sun’s eye being eclipsed in diurnal night.
