Buying Into Blackness

Black, contrast?

To what, to whom? To.

You too, lost in blank.

A dress of darkness

Walk in the dark

Under the gaze of those who hold the light.

In search you go

Of your inner f(l)ame

Fueled by the soul under your melanine.

My reality, a construct?

My skin burns

Suffering the assaults of a beast, a machinery I cannot reckon anymore.

BLACK ASS ERTIVENESS.

It functions a bit like a Tag doesn’t it?

What’s black without white?

Counterintuitive enquiry

Brother Baldwin pointed: what’s white without black?

Serious enquiry.

SELF-ASSERTIVENESS.

Blackness is. ©
