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.
