To Veiled Prisoners

Black bodies and flowing black scarves
Blotting out all consciousness of oneself
Blurring all differences and identities
Blending all unique contours to one whole
Banishing the will to de-merge from the mass
Bindings of subservience like shackles
Beneath black robes spirits lie tattered
Boundless depths of darkness abound
