Black And White

For the schematic inducement of compulsive being, the transmuting tenet of identity changes in the self-devised palette of color mélange, while the conjured chameleon paints the shifting façade of contrast. In the ostensible enactment of life’s drama, the performance perfected by obsessed passion of playing the multicolored roles, the sly shift from one actor to another is an axiomatic design of innate drive. As the colors amalgamate in the limelight on the visage of the virtual makeup, the chromatic face morphs into a mirror, reflects the illusory actuality in shades of gray with the perplexing disposition of ambiguity. The spasm of contrived perception splits the mirror, the shards of shattered pretence scatter as abandoned obscure debris. Metamorphosis creates the absolute entity, shaped by the distinct contours of black and white.

Subimal, you have such an amazing vocabulary and this is a creative masterpiece and I envy your poetic mind, but for me, this became too wordy for me. I love to see this boiled down some. Often that can create a more poignant effect.
