Toni Morrison Quotes
While They Are Busy Showing Off, Digging Other People's Graves, Hanging Themselves On A Cross, Running Wild In The Streets, Cherries Are Quietly Turning From Green To Red, Oysters Are Suffering Pearls, And Children Are Catching Rain In Their Mouths Expecting The Drops To Be Cold But They're Not; They Are Warm And Smell Like Pineapple Before They Get Heavier And Heavier, So Heavy And Fast They Can't Be Caught One At A Time. Poor Swimmers Head For Shore While Strong Ones Wait For Lightning's Silver Veins. Bottle-green Clouds Sweep In, Pushing The Rain Inland Where Palm Trees Pretend To Be Shocked By The Wind.
