Instead of purity, the color white in this poem represents blight and emptiness.
Blight white -
the white of night.
Colour of angels that smile from the
heavens
Upon the killing
Fields sown with skulls.
By tears of hollowed eyes they are rained upon-
shone upon, by the radiance and brilliance
of cacophonic laughter of cadaver smiles
Cease.

Blight white -
the colour of eyes
devoid of pupils playing truant;
Bleach-washed by tears, by sardonic laughter
by love lost and love lost and again
Lost souls dwell within them.
Sarcasm swells swooning hearts for sickening
songs of sadistic singers
Stop.

Blight white -
Blinding with its darkness
with its irony
with its truth and integrity and more and more and
More is never enough.
For the blind cannot measure
They feel and they fell and they fall as they fail
and again
the chorus of cadaver choristers cackle-killed
congress and progress
Cut.
