“How harmonious,” they all exclaimed in delight
And moved along merrily

The inquisitive peered closely, saw
The plight concealed extraordinarily

Under an innocent-looking light
That veiled injustice and atrocity.

What looks harmonious might not be so, even if it might have ‘looked’ that way since forever.

Peer closely, dissect the harmony, think critically, become your own judge.

Many thanks to Francine Fallara for inspiring this necessary thought through your prompt!
