NaPoWriMo: Day 19

I've been wanting to do a redaction poem since NaPoWriMo began, so today I'm finally doing one!

I took a paragraph of the Wikipedia article for "brown."

---


In terms of the visible spectrum, "brown" refers to high wavelength (low frequency) hues, yelloworange, or red, in combination with low luminance or saturation.[14] Since brownmay cover a wide range of the visible spectrum, composite adjectives are used such as red brown, yellowish brown, dark brown or light brown.
As a color of low intensity, brown is a tertiary color: a mix of the three subtractive primary colors is brown if the cyan content is low. Brown exists as a color perception only in the presence of a brighter color contrast.[15] Yellow, orange, red, or rose objects are still perceived as such if the general illumination level is low, despite reflecting the same amount of red or orange light as a brown object would in normal

[the adjectives are only perceived as normal]
