You'Re Black

This emptiness you insist Is the nothings that's on a list The imperfections of a wronged direction Covenant one; You're BLACK And you are the reason you are way you're at Your last straw placed you in the fires of lack it's because, because. . . . . . . You're BLACK And back in t he beginning there was nothing And noting is darker than black except maybe the purple the color of royalty other. . races ignore if it's tied to your neck Rather throw you overboard or off a horse Than to give you acknowledgement or voice The fullness you've accomplished now Are the reasons why we should all bow There's better forces in the air this universe was created by HIM This He came out of the darkness And He wears the purple for royalty And He made first the darkness this blackness in all inclusive reality A convenient one I am You're BLACK 06/21/14 written by James Edward Lee Sr.
