What do you think this poem is about?

// Snow Night Freedom //

go too far takers
verily the sun you came to take
turned to a snow ball
very little snow ball
walking on streets of papers
raising all deleted words
hidden lines
and fallen faces
those were disabled to fly
in the glassy sky of rainy mirrors
so bled both the eyes and glances
in drops: half red, half green
the loving see the red
the beloved see the green
and the poetry master
see them both
so go too far takers
no sun, no day
no light to raise in hands
the sun..snow ball
and the snow ball
walked very long
on poetry books
women chests
and men shoulders
so became an ink drop
refusing jails of papers
all byte cells
and gates of one zero
to be a graceful
free black man
his name
is freedom
his name
is night

    Black and white. Good and evil. Why must there be war before peace? A great poem, my friend. Poets can still see the beauty and remind others who might have lost all hope. You've succeed, dear poet.

    Fight for sun after snow fall at midnight...Artistry dwell in your poetry then grow and grow to be bigger in many lines, the meaning..
    as you help many people there when
    walking on streets of papers by your ink feet
    raising all deleted words in your metaphor beauty
    hidden lines but exist in understanding
    and fallen faces yet to rise
    I like this part: for me i look into this vision-
    in drops: half red, half green: Collision of two pigments that make flowers(red) and leaves(green) come one as natural beauty! ! !
    the loving see the red: how brave and passionate it is, strong feeling
    the beloved see the green....: how peaceful it was
