Black's Despair 2008Black is the color of a starless night, the absence of any kind of light. Its depth can draw a soul within, where it knows not where day or night begins. Black is sometimes the color of a man's skin, for a race of people where no one knows where black begins. An excuse to put one man above another, never considering him a spiritual brother. Black is the color of an abandoned soul, that no longer seeks the Savior he use to know. Choosing instead a different road, where hopelessness is its only abode. Amos 5:20 Will not the Day of the Lord be darkness, and not light--pitch black at that, without a ray of sunshine? Susan Hebert Ajaz copyright 2008 poetrypublisher.com/sajaz |
