A Portrait Of Society Poem by Donal Mahoney

A Portrait Of Society



Red, yellow, brown
work well together in
a portrait of society.
Add black, no problem.

But if we remove the red,
yellow and brown
and then add white,
white and black clash.

No simple answer but
white and black should talk.
Talking never killed anyone.
Might be worth a try.
