Shades

the order of the iambic pentameter, the chaos of the totally unmetrical, the logical conception of a piece by Bach, the frenzied wailing of the later John Coltrane, the predictability of the sonnet form, the convoluted voices of free verse, the yin the yang, the shade the sheen, and all the vibrant shades that lie between!
