Written many years ago when I was a emotional teenager, and used recently in my novel For Nil Consideration.

Life is fun,

Life is sadness,

Filled to the brim with evil and badness.

 

I need help,

That’s why you’re near,

I need protecting from my fear.

 

Black is the world,

 In which I’ve been,

Is life worth living despite what I’ve seen?

These Black and Blue Red Zone Days by Aberjhani

Just as life during the pandemic was color-coded with different hues representing different levels of danger, life in its aftermath has become shaded in similar ways. As a self-styled “Seeker of Beauty with Beauty,” (borrowing from a quote by W.E.B.
