Bright Colors

Green
all the walls are green
to keep the inmates calm.

Gray
let's paint the moon in gray
to keep the lunatics calm.

Red
all flags must be red
to keep the bloody motherfuckers calm.

White
all milk is deeply white
because all cows are very calm.

Blue
all helmets are blue
when we need war forces to keep calm.

Purple
not all violets are blue or calm
not all roses are red or calm.

Yellow
all the stars remain yellow
while the placid sky keeps the horizon calm.

Orange
all peels of all fruits will be colored orange
so all world economies will be calm.

Black
all colors will unite in deep black
in a silence that rests in a sleepy calm.
