Though I sang in my chains like the sea.”

Leonard Cohen
“There is a crack in everything.
That's how the light gets in.”

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“And so it goes...”
Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

Langston Hughes

Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--

Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?”
Langston Hughes, The Collected Poems
