Title: The Black and White Shadow Post by: Poetic_Princess on March 11, 2004, 09:03:30 AM The black and white shadow
there is a black and white shadow that encloses me a shadow beyond no other a shadow divided into two the black represents so much colour of skin,mind and integrity the kidnapping of our ancestors in the dark night under a ivory moon light the black shackels placed on our feet the shackels around our necks choking on our last breaths placed on a black ship and sailed acrossed the dark sea and into a dak middle passage a journey which was savage and malnourish but every present in this black mind of mine too many lives lost for one to forgot a history filled of darkness that seems to be repeating itself but in stronger force more ever present every where you turn knocking on every door standing on each doorstep attacking young and old the white shadow lingers on and struggles to be around making it's present felt in forms of mental slavery attacking the weak and lost hearted placing it's oppression upon all as it strolls in self praise halls holding it greed head high and it's degrading unnatural body standing tall walking around to pick at some one fate the black and white differs from each other as they speak and beg each one to differ the black resembling a black rose growing inbetween two stones and the white a rose grown among greed and unjustice so it feeds and grows unblemishly till the day these shadows can walk hand in hand they will always walk one on the left and the other on the right.. |
