Gray

Gray rivers and gray trees
Gray roads where grass should be
Gray cities where nothing is free
Gray people who cannot see

Gray music and gray song
Gray right and gray wrong
Gray short and gray long
Gray weak and gray strong

Gray doctors curing with gray tools
Gray professors teaching in gray schools
Gray citizens following the gray rules
Gray children growing into gray fools

Gray ups and gray downs
Gray smiles and gray frowns
Gray chains and gray crowns
Gray princesses in gray gowns

Gray like the gray wars we are fighting
Gray like the flashes of gray lightening
Gray like a gray ghost sighting
Gray like this gray poem I am writing

Gray money and gray spending
Gray sincerity and gray pretending
Gray receiving and gray sending
Gray always and gray depending

Gray proclamations of love and gray sneers of hate
Gray food served on a gray plate
Gray rooms where the gray people wait
Gray until their gray bodies ache

Gray Christian and gray Jew
Gray Muslim and gray Hindu
Gray eternity where gray is forever true
Gray me and gray you
