Chromatic Aberration

CHROMATIC ABERRATION There’s another epidemic Now infecting many a mind With a source hap academic Bending thought made colour blind Viewpoints Green colour of nature Must be blest, no reservation Though they hide a scarlet tincture Mask a socialist dictation Black Lives Matter is respected Cross the world now near and far With its red heart unsuspected Though it beats a Marxist bar Red can only be rejected When it’s on a MAGA hat Some may then try to correct it With a sneer and thrown brickbat Pink once tint of ladies choosing Air of tender love and grace Now viragos, furies, shrews in Street protest wave in-your-face So-called ‘Anti-Fascist’ hosts Indulge in Fascist style attack Unaware that irony gross Mocks their choice to dress in black! Chromatic aberrations shifts Dismay this old curmudgeon’s eye Yet his spirits still feel lifts To see red white and blue flown high
