Black is the end of a theater play
and the night when in bed I lay,
A soldiers boot before he goes into battle,
the sound of a herder herding cattle,
the darkness surrounding when hatred comes,
the smoke from the fireplace in your homes,
and the evil I see when people disagree.
Black is the color of a morning brew,
the sight of a black berry mountain dew,
and Halloween night when all is a fright.
The wolfs in sheep clothing you thought was your friend,
the bond that you made with your friends till the end,
the inside of my eyelids when I go to sleep,
the corner of the attic where the critters creep,
the hiding place of that
