After the Colorado Shooting
What is color?
What is light?
In a world
So black and white
Of hatred and love
Death and life
Is everything wrong?
Is anything right?
Are we chess pieces
Lead by hands alight?
Battling others
Black against white
Colors upon colors
Blinding us all
Into a hatred
Where we stand tall
And kill the colors
Vibrant and bright
Turning it all
To black and white
All a game
Conquer and kill
Burning, twisting, turning
Until
All the colors
All the light
Gone, nevermore
Only a slight
Shadow of darkness
From rays of light
Of a human race
Gone wrong
