Black Art

The world clouded over the side walks started to crack
      Motion became sickness as the sky from blue went black
         Darkness consumed the Being of once enlightened souls
            Pushing the weight of thunder burying all within dirty holes

   Blindness opaqued the vision that light so often brings
      Sensing how it all is senseless paid for in sufferings
         Atop sits the entity, black clothes, black hair, black heart
            Masked within his darkness painting our agony in black art
