White is the new color Red. Red for blood in dangerous and powerful, passionless crimes, thought thru and carefully invoked. Darkness still lurks in the shadows, but now, they are white. Without God, all gods are dogs. Yours, mine, ours. The one we beat because he belongs to us, the one we pamper because we are his people.. the one we fear because he is familiar and has menaced us with sharp teeth pulled back in a snarl. Did he smile or threaten to bite, or just demand that we give him his due space? Did he deny us passage or say we traverse at our own risk? Were we afraid or was he? Does he obey or do we... Further on, the brightness conceals hatred and indifference that will leave someone standing alone, holding the bag. Nothing diffuses this veil... daybreak and sunset remain the same. But wait... there is a palpable edge to this ill humor - selfishness. Self-ish-ness. Doing for/being like -my-self. The white wash covers the extreme agenda to reject those that reflect back any other color than me-ness. By deflecting all comers, the suns heat concentrates in hard-lit rooms where conversations lean toward exclusion. Where decisions are made to trump the light and transmute it, to darkness. In cars and bars and offices near and far, the water of the sun nurtures a future clothed in defiance against unity, congress and love. Each encounter leading to devastation helps to level the playing field. Each one who enacts their right to chose who will rule - in favor of any singularity - wills the shadows to thicken and obscure any bright future.
Now, the new red... is the empty color of death.
