Lines in Black and White.

Pages in a book are white with some black,
and some people reach for light to never look back.
Monsters and Demons come out at night,
and it seems people judge me out of spite.
So im guessing its cause im black,
but what do i lack,
because the flag not the only thing with stripes apon the back.
So if you dont want them back,
dont expect to get rid of black.
Keep in mind this isnt an attack,
just an example of how you cant have white without black.
-David Dillard II
