' ' ' 'Black Is Black(For Bryan)

Rating: 2.7


The sky has been
murdered

its sunset lies bloody
dying on an horizon

a stiletto’d silhouetted steeple
finding the heart

between the ribs
of land & sea

staining my mind
making me a witness.

God like Mac the Knife
scurries off

keeping as usual(out of sight) .

Soon the deed done
night covers up the crime scene

& black...is black.
