Margarita Lillico Poet Rhyme

Obscure Oxymoron

Inherently people are prone to pry 
Wherever there is more than meets the eye. 


Black and white, by patent definition, 
Dazzle in latent opposition.
Byproduct of a shady interplay - 
Panoply of 50 hues of grey. 

The contrast between black and white 
Is not as trite as day and night. 
In former days they harmonised 
On the big screen before our eyes. 

Beware of black, beware of white - 
Clandestine colours out of sight.
