Deep at the dark bottom of the melting pot, where the private is public and the public private, where black is white and white black, where the immoral becomes moral and the moral is anything that makes one feel good (or that one has the power to sustain), the white man's relish is apt to be the black man's gall.

Old age doth in sharp pains abound; We are belabored by the gout, Our blindness is a dark profound, Our deafness each one laughs about. Then reason's light with falling ray Doth but a trembling flicker cast. Honor to age, ye children pay! Alas! my fifty years are past! View quote

In your eyes, The light, the heat. In your eyes, I am complete. In your eyes, I see the doorway to a thousand churches. In your eyes, The resolution of all the fruitless searches.In your eyes, I see the light and the heat. In your eyes, Oh, I want to be that complete. I want to touch the light, the heat I see in your eyes. View quote
