    Black-Purple-Blue
    Crispy skin
    Scale dry
    Black
    Brutal words from a crowd of hate

    Brutally beaten
    Heart is weeping
    Blood spills
    Clogged up gills
    Black

    Blood of my body bleeds
    Presenting miraculous deeds
    Smooth skin
    Scars heal
    Still BLACK

    I can't change my skin color, but I can end the hate
    Bad hearts are healed
    Good sides revealed
    Black-Purple-Blue

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
