Colourblind
It was black and white
for a while
Until the first line
was drawn
Then the pale grey people
the people who could only draw
a black cross

Men & women of honor being held up

A nation dedicated to human rights saving families from
each other
Deaths of innocents lending grievance for
self-preservation

He'll be all over telly soon
our fatty blundering hot air buffoon.
Puffing Shakespeare and Latin.
Please down let that twat in.
