From the Nigritude Cosmic Light births its purpose

In its Truth , neither GOOD nor BAD , Man holds its use

Tyrian PurpLe , a Kings Wealth for a Queens silk

Ochre clay painted hands tell Man's early story

Ebony warrior crUshes vermilion red brick to adorn his face in Victory

Its does not Lie. It knows no Fear. It is PRIDE , Unflinching

Looking up, at the Haint Blue Sky I ask

Am I ? Nature's Mandrill , only to be Coloured by my experiences.
