Silhouette.

A silhouette staggers,

searches for clarity,

knows it can't be 

fully-fleshed yet

abhorring being 

a wraith, just 

asking to be seen,

craving that legitimacy

of witness; if Elysium

can't be reached, 

then, at least, ward

off the obsolescence...

◄ Farce.

The Latin obsolēscere meaning, logically enough, "to fall into disuse" gives credence (Latin credentia, from Latin credent- ‘believing’, from the verb credere) to all silhouettes.
