Beige

Are you beige? Do you speak with the rest? words with no validity, just like froth in the wind. Do you copy and try to emulate your neighbour to prove and justify who you are, by getting a big car . Do you dislike individuality? those who wear outlandish clothes, who think ,to you,crazy thoughts, Are your opinions always the right ones? and everyone else is wrong. do you understand that not all are the same? Does your life have to be neat and tidy? All in its place. Or do you love the wild woods with all its inhabitants . Do you dislike messy things? like seagulls who dive and bomb while protecting their young. Do you think that all should be killed? Like those who oppose those who shout and scream at injustice. Are you a religious person? understanding not the words anew, watching the poor succumb and die through lack of funds. It has been written That after being blessed in turn you bless those who need help. What is profit to you? at what cost money in an unsafe bank Big dwelling that you dont really need. Are you more worthy ? than others in this world self entitled than your fellows. Are you beige ? like all the rest suburban automatons all dancing to mechanical tunes. -I AM NOT BEIGE.- Andrew P McIntyre 27/02/2022..
