“Sometimes, I feel like when someone asks me if I believe in God, it’s like a blind person asking if I’m black so that they can put me in the right category.
People are constantly searching for little things that they can use as markers to identify how and what people are.” —Hank Green (via watchmespincircles)

Why Are Your Poems So Dark?

melancholynotes:

by Linda Pastan

Isn’t the moon dark too,  
most of the time?  

And doesn’t the white page  
seem unfinished  

without the dark stain  
of alphabets?  

When God demanded light,  
he didn’t banish darkness.  

Instead he invented  
ebony and crows  

and that small mole  
on your left cheekbone.  

Or did you mean to ask  
“Why are you sad so often?”  

Ask the moon.  
Ask what it has witnessed.
