A Colorful Lesson

O Black, stealing Light,
reflecting nothing,
storing heat, shade of night,
I long to be so efficient!

As water, black ice,
you, slippery as time
more than suffice,
and turn worst disaster
into something sublime.

Or evening, black night,
you turn day into dream,
send anxiety to flight,
blot trouble in sleep
and cover all unseen.

You, the selfish hue,
opposite of white
scoff what other colors do,
and they all flow into you,
as you swallow them in spite!
