Answering the Black Boomerang

Victoria Kwansa Let me tell you, chile, Last November The thing ricochet From the quiet Nile And back The boomerang In the White house Is black. Dead grass grows When spring is come The root goes Where water flows Deep down Beyond the historic eye If you can believe You can fly.

This has a beautiful diction to it. it gives a sense of world wonder that chimes well musically. A positive theme that eminates a great deal of warmth. the title is brilliant. I haven't any idea what it is refering to and that is the joy of it!
