Somewhere Between Wrong and Right

Light and Dark-
we speak in contrasts
easier to resolve
than the shades between
(fine lines of gradation
that truly define)

If we were basic color…
then amalgams of dim and bright
would do-

but our specie is far more elusive,
somewhere between wrong and right
everything really of old
and everything possibly new…
