in Shades

Black and white gives

you shades — unlike colour.

It leaves you with a feeling like no other.

Like sensing a human in his truth,

as if he’s got nothing left to lose.

It’s direct, and yet it leaves you room.

It’s naked, even when you offer the costume.

It’s everything and nothing, all at once —

whatever you choose to see.

It’s an artist’s heart, never meant to be ordinary.
