Chromatose

illuminate me
in metallic hues
accents of body and mind
outlined in shades
complementary
this schematic chart
pairing opposites
with metalized ease

unshackle me
with ions in color
from this darkened state
luster and resonance
not dissimilar
from the gleam
of chrome and steel
surrounding me here

resurrect me
in luminous pigment
a delicate chrominance
defining my next move
metallurically
separating the wasted
elements as alloy
back to crystalline
