Colors

A plethora of bright colors,

To brighten up your day.

But when it comes to people,

That’s just not the way.

The tone of one’s skin,

Or place of their birth.

Can bring consternation,

Or loss of self-worth.

Whom you chose to love,

Or how you express it.

Inflames the self-righteous,

To the highest of shit fits.

So take a step back

And enjoy the vast colors.

Then share our best love,

With those some call “others.”
