SHADOWS OF DIFFERENT COLOURS (by Olisaeloka Onyekaonwu)

BLACK BOY REVIEW

Distant souls we are
connected by sight,

shadows of different colours
that is our flag’s stigma.

Like the flesh and the grave;
spittle and blood
our understanding are strangers,

Misunderstanding unites us
rocky interest sustain us;
vanity embraces us stiff
Alas! We are all shadows of different colours.
