Dimmed Brightness

The war ensued, words, abused and tossed

Landing on everyone with impunity.

Verbatim had dignity crossed, where was gravity?

Degrees of differences bold, reason went cold.

In this melee stood a face, sure of a bright race.

Shaken but firm to the mid went straight.

Loud and bold he spake

This whirlpool of pedantic accrual

Dynamiting reason, to be brutal.

I met all four on my way, 

Ego, hatred, injustice and race.

All in a single colour drape,

Colourless stood humanity, near the door

Ready to leave in a spur.

Pick your colours and drape her.

She is love, life and happiness.

In these dim times she holds the brightness.
