Black and White For Monochrome Madness, Dec 14, 2024

So fun to see how photos will turn out in black and white! Don’t know if that qualifies as monotone, but Brian did it, so I get to, too.

Brian (Bushboy) is the host for Monochrome Madness this week.

Dark Against Light

 

 

Dark Against Light

The universe’s fine maquette

is light on dark and dry on wet—
her quietness and stillness set
against the thrum of castanet.
It is a sort of etiquette:
opposite versus opposite.
Victory gauged against regret.
Sunrise followed by sunset.
Every lottery and bet
boundless riches as well as debt.
It does no good to fuss and fret.
This irony is all we get—
nature one pure brightness set
as backdrop to our silhouette.

The prompt today is one of the prettiest words in the English language: silhouette.
