Black and White
The world is distinctly greying,
black and white are fading away.
There are qualities decaying,
brightness faded to the greyest grey.
Everyone must speak correctly,
opinions have become bigotry.
Never speak unless indirectly,
if we can’t stare how can we see?
Sensibilities over sense,
can’t offend by having thought
thought that just might give offence.
Now what has our discretion bought?

Awesome and so true--great work from the bunny *teases long ears*
Concise and pithy--just how I like 'em.

Thanks Petrel. And Dannyboy, there are indeed many offbraches possible. I'll get to critiquing your latest work soon. But for now I must sleep.
(Oh, and the ears don't take teasing too well. They bite.)
