Red Is Green

The Power-to-be
  likes to decree
that red is green 
  and vice versa

The audience rapt
  sucked into his trap
They wildly applaud
  a beady-eyed fraud

It’s like living in an alternate universe…the space cadets lean in.

Politic defined by colour blind. Well said in a few well chosen words, Gershon.
