Black Ugly

I wonder if pictured opinion is found in the sight of the visually impaired? & if they might be inclined to share views meaning behind Beauty Is Blind? Have they too been sold a melanated lie? That hue-man shades of brown ought to be blackened with a frown? & whitewashed with a lighter sense of melanted pride? I ponder, eyes closed. Do minds, deeper see outside? © Qwey.ku
