[Orchestra During Intermission at Square Dance - Lee Russell]Dirt and not copper makes a color darker. It makes the shape so heavy and makes no melody harder.
It makes mercy and relaxation and even a strength to spread a table fuller. There are more places not empty. They see cover.
-Gertrude Stein, "Dirt And Not Copper," Tender Buttons

been looking at this, and... I got nothing. Sorry.
gah! seriously? You don't think this poem is gorgeous? Love the dirt as something so...dichotamously lovely, I suppose

Uh, no. It's not.)
