Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder
Color after all what is it but radiation
The world glowers dark without an eye
.......................................................................... Israel Lewis
Quoted lines are from Wallace Stevens "Arrival at the Waldorf" and my poem "Araby"
An invention of the human mind
energy in a very narrow range
The "wine-dark" sea
of the electromagnetic spectrum
Picasso's Blues
wavelengths 0.4 to 0.7 millionths of a meter
"...that alien, point-blank, green and actual Guatemala"
tickling optic nerves
reactor pool's ghostly blue (Dancing with Cherenkov?)
actuating in the cerebral cortex, right hemisphere
"the Metro sky glowed Goldwyn-Mayer
brain's color registers
"as we rode away
Red -- Green-- Blue-- RGB
in her cocoa-colored Chevrolet"
Waits for the great red love.
