Black Rainbow

I see darkness
houses standing empty, abandoned
Cars ditched by the roadside
vast farms ready for harvest
but harvesters are no where to be found

Its not the end
But the beginning

For a hungry man riots
his hunger can no longer stand

For a homeless man refuses
another night under the bridge

For a farm worker refuses
to work tirelessly yet sleep hungry

For the praise singer is silent
he is calling out spades

Land thieves are thieves
Murderers are murders
Rapists are rapists
Where do they fit in the rainbow?

But the sky is dry
No rain
The rain is wrapt in darkness
There is no sign of spring
The rainbow is black.
