“One colour. One word. So many shades. The color of african skin, of shadow on snow, of a jay's throat, the color of saxophones at dusk, of orbiting police lights smeared across tenement windows, of a flame's intestines, of the faint tracery of veins visible beneath the ghost-flesh of her forearm's underside, of loneliness, of melancholy. The blues.”

“It is not the absence of melancholy
Though the overcoming process during its complete presence
That allows me to fulfil my heart with greater happiness.”
― The Art of Wisdom: Poems for Soul Growth
