Prejudice

We have just agreed on paper:
He is to us all  'A leper'
Still leper with his skyscraper,
No less so with his nice wrapper...

Oh Yes! For him some saved pepper,
Bertram T. Noah cause to caper,
For blokes he'd kept at a distance;
Persons elsewhere 'Revered Substance'
We're all clearly turning fiends, 
Who had been his supportive friends,
At the bottom of it all pride,
As options began to be wide...

More visits to us for new shape
We have blades that leprosy scrape.
