A Day in the Life of the Black and White
January 24, 2013
A day in the life of the black and white
Lines are clear
Burdens are light
The sun is hot
The trees are tall
On today’s agenda:
Food.
Water.
A day in the life of the black and
white
Simple.
But threats come about
Unbeknownst to the pure
Homes are lost
Friends disappear
A shade of gray is introduced.
A day in the life of the black and
white
The old is gone
The lines are blurred
What is this gray?
What have we done to deserve
Pain.
Loss.
Gray.
A day in the life of the black and white
The sun is still hot
But more so
The trees are still tall
But less dense
On today’s agenda:
Find food.
Water.
Hide.
Survive.
A day in the life of the black and white
Precious.
Pure.
Endangered.
