Black cat builds his house upon a rock
and the white cat burns it down.

Black cat builds his house upon the Lord,
and escapes the white cat's hell.

So burn fire burn.
Burn a crimson red,
and turn the white
into charred black.

Black cat builds his house upon a rock
and the white cat kills him now.

Black cat builds his house upon the Lord,
and his race will not die out.

So burn fire burn.
Burn a lyrical red,
and turn the black
into white again.

Ashes to Ashes,
Dust to Dust,
And it all came tumbling down.


"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortals ever dared to dream before;" -Edgar All

I really like this! But I think I like it better without the last three lines. Nice write!

The hardest part about writing poetry,
is trying not to write like everyone else.
