Black is…
Black is … the darkest colour — the absorption of all colours — all visible light… the ink of choice in my writers pen — the truth ready to be spilled again
Black is… Mansa Musa sitting atop his throne — a travelling man with royal bones
Black is… Mumufresh — so so def — Ms Hill — Pras and Wyclef
Black is… the infinite space beyond the Earth’s day and night sky — the galaxies home for all starlight
Black is… the Kimono of the Japanese groom — dressed in wedded commitment beneath the Sun and Moon
Black is… the colour of my babies skin — the Universe right where it begins
Black is… the conscience behind Black Thought — rapping knowledge after the miseducation taught
Black is… the philosophy of the anarchist army — disturbing all peace of any government party
Black is… what lives matter in the positive disorder for necessary change — for justice — freedom and equality to reign
Black is… the night when love screams your name — releasing Black butterflies inside untamed
Black is… the feeling you get from the Godfather of Soul — the onyx of Nina — the sound of Black gold
Black is… the experience worn on a Sensei Black belt — the Tao of the Wu — 36 Chambers told well
Black is… not monolithic — the renaissance of all things — Black is so damn beautiful — flawed evolving
