BLACK IS NOT NEGATIVE--

And just what is blackness;
And why is it colourless
And what is blackness
Nothing
Zero a non-hero
Empty
Not whole
Nothing
Darkness
And what is blackness;
Color wash in the dark
Color lost 
The property 
Quality of being black in color.
Complete darkness;
The absence of any light.
" plunged into pitch blackness"
Belonging to human group of dark-colored skin.
"my experiences made me 
" plunged into pitch blackness"
Who am I 
I am black
Whom am I
I react to the fact
I'm not ashamed from wetch I came
What am I
Dark without void
Let it be told
Color lost 
The property
Far more aware of my blackness than ever before
The quality or character associated with black people
"the blackness of the poetry 
An inextricable aspect of his subject matter
Does it matter after
A state characterized by despair depression
A learnt lesson
There is a little hope 
Amid the blackness of life
What is black and why is it nothingness
Or is it 
Color lost 
The property 
Quality of being black in color.
Complete darkness;
And with this what color is God?
God is not a colored God
Yet He created the dark as well as the light
He created white and black
Rainbow red, green, yellow, blue, gold, browns yes and black
This and all colors God He made all that
yes even 
Black
And ain't nothing wrong with that
Praise the Father for all colors
God don't make no mess
This includes black and it's not negative
