Black and White

Black and white
Two bright contrasting colours
Distinguishing 
The rights and the wrongs
The principles and rules
Are too sacred to be outcast
Law breakers tend to 
Ignore it, discard it and overule it
But not in front of humanity
But not in front of democracy
But not in front of the truths
But not in front of the law
But not in front of the Almighty God
Scandals ever commited are humiliating 
The sanity of black and white 
And so the offender's name 
Is to be smeared
And out of the people's votes
