White Fades To Black

White fades to Black Be it stroke or a heart attack Techno Color Schemes Streaming in at the end of our dreams Differences unveiled Who's the Spectator or the ones on parade Colorful Costumes galore No need for bigotry, hate or war Autumn leaves fall down Into the earth home is found What ends ends the same Black to the future then back again Black is a Fact ~ NO more Racist attacks ~ White fades to Black

Sadly racism will continue, untill we stop looking at someone as a colour..

Would that everyone who is a racist, could be re-incarnated as a person they hate; would racism still exist? Love the, "Techno Color Schemes"; the "white fading to black"; sounds a lot like a Zen Koan. Beautiful.

Arturo, I was so touched by the video, thank your for sharing it with us. I never knew all of this. I feel good that at least one person, Joe, truly loved her for herself. and your poem is good also with many great lines - into earth home is found - well done ~

Arturo...being a lover of dark poetry...I love this. The meanings behind racism and prejudice in every aspect is captured here. Regards, Vickie
