To live is so startling it leaves little time for anything else.

To love is so startling it leaves little time for anything else.

Pain - has an Element of Blank -/ It cannot recollect/ When it begun - or if there were/ A time when it was not -.

But Basquiat is the first thing I've done that I'm really proud of.
