The War of the Pots and Kettles

Black You ARE

AND Black you BE

What ever ELSE

YOU cannot be ME

 

Whiter than white

And purer than pure

I KNOW what's RIGHT

That's my ALLURE

 

But, How can YOU BE

So very SURE

About what you perceive

as YOUR allure?

 

So CONFIDENT

In the RULE of LAW

That you can flout it

Whenever your bent

Is to BE without it

 

YOU think you're so BRAVE

To call ME DEPRAVED

As you parade your virtue

Symbolized by your STATUE

Of LIBERTY

 

An OxyMoron

A Freedom you lost

Because of its cost

 

You think Economics

IS Ergonomics

But YOUR Economics

Is Egonomics

 

A self-righteous assertion

That leads to Desertion

Of your human nature

In which we so long

To Belong

 

So, let's bury the hatchet

There's no THING to match it

A celebration of DIFFERENCE

And no indifference

 

No grayness

No blameness

But a splash of colour

Of every hue

Not black and blue

 

That's me and you
