Colors

Pride flag with all the colors and all its glory

ROYGBV, an abbreviated true story

Of those who are brave to speak their truth

frequently asked for evidence or proof

Filling out forms or applications

of gender, race, marital status, and other ramifications

that makes people conform into a monochromatic propriety

A rigid archaic society

In this consciousness, a colorful world thrives

awareness brings different hues on platforms to survive

How to you speak to someone who does not see?

The ones who build walls with an ignorant creed

Y will be briefly highlighted today

Hi, I hope you’ll stay

Yellow: Pantone 123

The complexion they see

The skin with all the stereotypes

Or all the Kung fu, fried rice hype

Fear, hate, sadness, and all this fighting

Understand that violence can’t solve a thing



The colors represent something great

Peoples’ lives are at stake

GLBTQ community, I stand by you

For what what you’ve been through

And the courage it takes to be “you”
