Self-destruction

 The large white ships arrived,

They saw how the black sea sand glistened 

They drooled over wanting to feel, to possess, to devour.

But they knew their feet were not designed for such sand 

So they waited...


They waited and saw how the people of black sea sand fought among themselves. 

Fought over what should have united them to drive the large white ships away.

They fought over food, language,dominance among all non.sense lots.


The large white ships arrived 

They saw how the black sea sand glistened before,

Now it was pale as its colour faded underneath brotherly blood.

They drooled knowing they could feel, possess and devour.

Knowing their feet could now control the design of such sand,

They waited no more.

The robes, our skin, his skin, yes his albino skin together with the red earth gave such a contrasting yet intriguing detail .  I stood at the shallow end of the stream which served as the source of water to the entire village. I was one of the new converts and the last to be baptised. They said i had to die and resurrect three times to complete the rite.  "Are you anxious my child?" Father inquired. "Yes I am" , I gently whispered.  📸: Etsy.com  Father Mathew slightly nodded and smiled. "It will be over soon and that anxiety will be replaced with joy".He added.
