0’s or 1’s | Zainab Iliyasu Bobi

          If roses

             were black

I will spray a beam of light

          To puncture

            the stem

Then drain the toxic nectar

            And replace

            with rays of hope

To succumb a chance at reality

            Maybe

           the olfactor

will taste some scent.
