Image Inspired Short Story



B&W

He rushed to work when something grabbed his attention. He stared. This simple thing captivated him.
Black and white. Vague. Simple.
This is our world, one big black and white wall. We are the stripes. Each and every one of us are the same. Same distance apart same color same size same everything. Everything in our society, our world is one big standard set.
Although we preach diversity and embracing what makes us unique, we are all still the same.
We loathe one who expresses himself. We disown and judge and look down upon him until he is no longer a black strip in our colorless world.
But we are not to blame. We were brought up to be the way we are. Boys act one way  girls act another. Dad goes to work while mom stays home. But we have the ability to change this. We have the ability to create ourselves to be any geometric shape we desire to be. We have the ability to not be just one long strip in the black and white society that is our world.
