Humans.
Once creative, free dreaming,
imagining, laughing, living,
being weird, looking at sheds.
The Palette of humanity was full of colours;
some beautiful and cashed up,
others odd and different, many dark and awful.
The Palette of Colours was the make-up
of human beings and their emotions.
The who they were, not just clinical notions.
Now, humans hold an empty Palette devoid of colours.
There is only black and white;
Humans don’t even know how to find the grey.
When a number discovered a Tea Cosy,
no one knew what it was.
They didn’t understand the colours,
yet they were moved, and something changed.
The Tea Cosy was taken and studied in secret;
So began the filling of the human Palette with colours,
and the Great Tea Cosy Revolution.
