Clarexicity

CLARITY is lost when good escapes an easy definition, and bad is not predictably a cowboy dressed in black. COMPLEXITY confounds, from losing innocence to courting possibilities, from childhood's casual cakewalk to the forced march of responsibilities, the blurring of all boundaries, the complications of a simple yes or no. SIMPLICITY has yes written all over it.
