&quot;If one will scoff at the study of language, how, save in terms of language, will one scoff?&quot; - Mario Pei<br /> &quot;I write for the same reason I breathe - because if I didn&#039;t, I would die.&quot; Isaac Asimov


first lightly
with a sweep of his hand
the artist brushes the shadows on
as the sun sets
with each stroke
time passing
the shadows deepen
the light darkens
everything is soon covered
by the thin black watercolour
until the light shines again
