Leaving the Tunnel
Nothing we see is color
Cezanne said that
but no one believed him
All we really see is light
The mineral-laden earth
with its zillions of herbal
veins and carnivorous flowers
mere pinpoints of light
reverberations of molecular light
adorned with ornaments
of human bones

Nice! Who could argue with Cezanne about color?
