Black On Black

 

 

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 Committed
For Ethnic Pride.
Humanity is committing suicide.

Yes, The Devil's been grossly overpaid.
The body count mounting
upon his Breakfast Table laid.


Lost souls, darkness,
Holocaust.

Which one is Hitler 
or yet, among us Faust? 

Sorrow Borrowed
Tomorrow Follows

Black on Black
Shadows or Shades?
Blind our eyes
See the color Fades.
