Premium Member He Who Never Loves

   He who never loves
     never makes mistakes

   Though his heart will never sing
     neither will it ache

   He elects to play it safe
     risks he never takes  

   Though I thought I saw regret
     o’erspread him at the wake

Black

Black is the sky in big sky country.
Black is the charred boar,
with blackberry jam.
Black is the flavor of choice,
the speaker of colors the one with voice.
Black is the tea and the liqour to apease.
Black is the current 
that washes away the moment.
Black is the priest,
that the congregation elects.
Black is the tide and the ties that bind.
