It's said that these days

Most people are greys.

Grey personalities

in sharp grey suits

Their grey formalities

Enabling grey pursuits

And those greys,

They like it this way

The greyness is comforting

Their scale blends softly

With greyness embracing

But ending up costly

See, there's a price to pay

To become a grey

The rewards are great

Security and community

Yet along with grey fate

There comes immunity

A resistant shield of grey

A barrier to display

For the comfort of a grey life

You give up a rainbow

As payment for no strife

You limit places you go

For to be grey

Is to live just one day

The greyness eternal

Is a life without risk

So a pox on those prisms of the infernal

What a glorious monochrome is this.
