Black and white

By Jose Guzman

Nothing is truly as it seems,

Read between the lines,

Finding the hidden truth,

The ‘quiet ones’,

The goofy ones,

The whimsical ones,

The kind ones,

The innovative,

The creative ones…

This black and white spectrum

Unfit for many, like myself

Likely unnoticed by you,

Only the secondary characters

In your world.

Slowly open your eyes,

Surely, hopefully,

You will realize 

We were always there

Steadily, slowly appearing before you

Like the invisible becoming visible.

The moment for you to simply

See us truly…
