"Original Sin"

Black:

Proud, 

Strong, 

Stoic,

Bound,

Struggling to

Break free.

White:

Indifference 

To whips and chains

Mutilating skin and heart of 

Indefatigable spirit, 

Resigned 

-Almost.

   

Specious apologies a

Worthless restitution,

Empty words for 

Guilt assuaged. 

Appeasement for 

Loss Incalculable 

-Inconsolable.

                                       

Black: 

Proud, 

Strong, 

Stoic, 

Bound, 

Fighting still 

To Be.

"Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? 

That's what it is to be a slave," 

Roy Batty, Blade Runner
