Lion In the Lamb's Stall

It's become fashionable to un-label things
be beige about everyone and everything
beige is a politically safe mirage of tranquility
because beige goes along with anything
be gender neutral or face a horde of fire balls
ignore when your ballerina is in a knife fight 
with a studded biker over a piss splashed stall

label me whatever but I like my salt and pepper labeled
I'm a lion and not into crapping next to a lamb or sable
I like my zebra zigzagging across the purple plains in a cyclone
I have nothing against beige but beige can never be a rainbow

I have already beaten you to the Rogue-field, and it is delightfully uplifting and fun here! Beige is not even a word I have ever uttered, used, or thought of a second time. nicely penned!
