Black and White
April 14, 2014
Together, we are Black.
We have all been absorbed,
For fear of being different.
We have the ability to stand out.
We hide from it. We must blend.
To be different is to be an outsider.
Who wants to be White.
You'll be an outsider,
No, a Whitesider.
Whitesiders are queer. Odd.
You'll shine bright. Offbeat.
Instead of being favored, you're opposed.
You are: Good or Bad.
Right or Wrong.
Devine or Corrupt.
Do you head for the Self Righteous? In the Black?
Or do you head to the Otherwise? In the White?
