Black and White

I thought black and white Is the history of gunpowder Exhausted along border points To restore fragile peace To ease unilateral justice And the rule of lore They say black and white Is justice meted legally out By oppressor to the hapless Vanquished in hot pursuit Of a beautifully loathed Sensual normalcy. Some think black and white Is the lecture of a dimly lit Europe To desperate continent in the dark To nay set ablaze their houses So as to keep away crafted darkness Of black bull mounting female white. Indeed black and white in reality Is the presentation of coveted peace prize To the makers of atomic bombs dropped To decimate populated rural countrysides Just to terminate disastrous nuclear War fought on political fronts.
