GoldMold


gold. 

nothing but gold. 

all is gold.

enters no one bold.

him, her, it; all gold.

there is no him/her/it.

gold is all.

all is it.

no one is one.

gold is all.

one is gold.

what is silver?

paint it gold.

what is bronze?

paint it gold. 

You want black?

Step back, heart attack.

He wants red?

That guy bled.

ENOUGHBLOODENOUGHSAME.

thisisnogame. 

It's time to change, rearrange.

a larger color range.

red.

yellow.

orange.

black.

white.

grey.

Mix...re-mix. 

remove the gold, improve the mold.

allcanshinewithoutagoldmind.

be them. no.

be him. no.

be her. no. 

be us. no.

beyoubetruebenew.

don't subdue. 

You is due. 

phew.
