Black On Black

By LaMythica

Black on Black
Race and Skin

White on White
Where does it begin?

Red on Red
Bleeds and Cries.

Yellow on Yellow
A Bullet Flies.

Black on Black
Hate and Skin
to Choke, 
to Strangle
What is, What's been!

Black to Black
White to White
Halloween or 
Christmas
Day or Night?

Say it's Yesterday
or
Sing it Tomorrow
Humanity's roots
gnarled and narrow.

Deny, Conspire
Hates like Fire!
Comes to be
in many ways.
Ethnic Cleansing? 
Slaughter Slays.

Genocide. 
The Devil's been overpaid.

Lost souls,
darkness
Holocaust.

Which one is Hitler 
yet, 
among all us? 

Sorrow
Borrowed
Tomorrow
Follows

Black on Black
Shadows, or Shades
blind our eyes
See
the color Fades.
