Colour Poem by Lachie R

Jennifer Horgan —

Black is as empty as the infinite abyss

Black is the void and being insignificant

Black is the squeaky taste of rubber

Black is onyx, ebony and sable

Black is the smell of burning charcoal and thick smoke

Black is insomnia

The low hum of black echoes through space

The far stretch of the universe is black

Black is nothing
