Voahanitriniaina Rabary-Andriamanday Poet Free verse

The Colour Black

Black is not the colour
that you carry all round
to suit the rococo ground

Black is not just beautiful
it's the haunting memory
the big pool
of rococo fantasy;

It's not the playing ground
for harmony
to stay with you

He's playing 'round
the corners
playing 'round the colours
that won't suit your mood

Black is not just beautiful
