Conundrum

Conundrum

I can’t understand it:
White = purity
Black = evil
Yet white bakes, roasts, and perms to diminish
Porcelain clean and its accompanying factors
And black creams, bleaches and straightens to hide
Earth browns and their accompanying factors
Someone should point out that with these physical changes:
White = evil
Black = purity
This doesn’t compute with current social ideologies.
Something’s wrong,
Balances are thrown askew.
If things continue in this ludicrous manner it will mean:
White/Black = Potential for evil and purity in both.
And everybody knows that’s not possible…
Right?

  1. Societal equations are always worth reevaluating. This one should be gotten rid of entirely, neither white nor black is inherently good or evil. It seems as though this would be an obvious conclusion to come to, but the world still has a long way to go
