There Is Substance In The Shadow
There is an allocation of dim light and shade.
Substance in the shadow is frequently manmade.
There is an imputation of caprice and slant.
Substance in the shadow is frequently penchant.
There is an accusation of rancor and spite.
Substance in the shadow is frequently sham might.
There is an affirmation of purpose and zeal.
Substance in the shadow is frequently appeal.
There is an implication of outlook and chance.
Substance in the shadow is frequently romance.
There is an apparition of spirit and wraith.
Substance in the shadow is frequently blind faith.
There is an intimation of inkling and clue.
Substance in the shadow is frequently purview.
There is an allegation of contempt and slur.
Substance in the shadow is frequently hauteur.
There is an indication of censure and shame.
Substance in the shadow is frequently raw blame.
