Bifurcation
- by The Vestibular Bard

Once lived a beast myopically,
He still lives to this day...
The world he saw was black and white,
Devoid of shades of gray…
All things that wandered in his mind,
Fell neatly in two bins;
The good, the bad; the saved, the damned;
Those righteous, those who sin...
Till one day a sardonic imp,
Did save him from his plight...
By knocking over all his bins,
Thus mixing black and white.
And there amongst this sea of gray,
The beast did wail irate;
“I’ll never comprehend this world…

…if I can’t bifurcate!”

Yo Vestibular Bard,

This poem is wise and well done.

Gray is a very good color.

Thank-you nakedthoughts...

My poetry is meant to be read out loud.

To me, poetry that lacks rhythm, is as silly as putting clothes on thoughts...

What a wonderful write ... a ponderous piece for sure~
