Human colours.. Apu Mondal

What colour is your heart,
Your mind and thoughts....
Are they deadly pale, with
Diseased desires poisoned
Have they taken in shrapnel
From the volley of curses
Someone spit in vengeance.
Have they turned black
From poison ivy, smelling
Of racism and poverty,
Has the colour yet smiled
As sun in the sky and rain
In the air, how the colour of
Our own face mask the day
Aren't we hunting the same
Blood with guts tied to the bow.
