The Daffodil-Yellow Villa

Let it wash the rust from your steel joints, like an oil of life
Let it give your bridges the curve of hips and supple vines.

The recociliation of the Lion and Bull and Tree

Who in one burst of saxophone laughter
Created heaven and earth in six days,
And on the seventh slept a deep Negro sleep. — Leopold Sedar Senghor
