Colour: A world of greys

It's said that these days
Most people are greys.

Grey personalities
in sharp grey suits
Their grey formalities
Enabling grey pursuits

And those greys,
They like it this way

The greyness is comforting
Their scale blends softly
With greyness embracing
But ending up costly

See, there's a price to pay
To become a grey

The rewards are great
Security and community
Yet along with grey fate
There comes immunity

A resistant shield of grey
A barrier to display

For the comfort of a grey life
You give up a rainbow
As payment for no strife
You limit places you go

For to be grey
Is to live just one day

The greyness eternal
Is a life without risk
So a pox on those prisms of the infernal
What a glorious monochrome is this.
