black complexity

page of rants

images that celebrate the complexity of black.

We do not have the same experience. We come from different islands
different continents
with different cultures
our history is not the same
we have different religions
different preferences
different foods
a different culture
in all these differences there is room for familiarity
love and extasy
why wouldn't you recognize it
why wouldn't we?

How can you gaze upon their presence
Without wanting to extend protection unto them
How can you process their joy without wanting
to extend care and nurture unto them
For your mind is tainted, so your perception
might be too

Though innocence is right in front of you
the beholder deceived by rules established before their first breath. Even before our own.
Don't make them pay because of your blindness. As one prize, they simply cannot afford it.

Or even understand it
even process it
so what's it worth

I don't want these young souls to perish under your judgement
They don't know what judgement is.
Indulge in their purity, without stripping it away from them
Without diminishing their fire. See their souls clean as a canvas
Do not kill their souls

Looking back at these pictures I am sensing a theme. A theme of love.
