Goodbye binary world Don't it just irritate you to no end You must choose or lose Yes or no Right or wrong Left or right Thumb up or down Black or white Hey there are many shades of gray Let alone the rainbow of colors Us or them Friend or foe Good or evil Light or dark I need, I deserve a richer existence Beyond 1 or 0 My brain was not wired just for one option My being feeds on the depth and breath of wisdom Not on the ever efficient single choice It takes time and patience Understanding and compassion Awe and a gnawing hunger Comprehension and innocence Strength and tenderness Silence and action Intolerance to injustice Certitude and confidence To say goodbye to the binary Hello to the cornucopia of life
