It's in the Gray

A Beautiful Sound

Can you see the gray?

It's as clear as day

It can't be seen any other way

Black is too dark

and white is to light

for vision to decipher

what's wrong and what's right

It's in the gray that you see

the mistakes that will be

revealing history's

absurd mysteries

Take time to slow down

and wallow around

in it's beautiful sound

stay still like an ace

and let it embrace

till it slaps you in the face

with grace and distaste

cuz it's not over there

or over there

or over there...

it's not in the black or the white

you don't need to go anywhere

It's in the gray

that you find the

the answers to time

so I make up this rhyme

and recite it online

hoping someone will be kind

enough to reply

or show me a sign

that they hear my divine

interpretation of why...

It's in the gray
