Button Cross
1338x1742
2013
Button Cross is an image that is to be viewed alongside a poem
entitled "Shadows." This piece aimed to represent the middle tones of a gradation scale; no bright whites, no dark blacks.
Shadows
Light gives.
Shadows.
Darkness takes.
Light casts shadows.
Shadows.
Darkness swallows.
Light is brutal.
Life is brutal.
Shadows.
Darkness is soothing.
Death is soothing.
Shadows.
Between these extremes lay we in shadows
Striving for either perfection or the grave.
“God rest his soul” say we
For he is saved from and by the blinding light
That casts him
In shadows….
