red is holy, blue is holy

  

.

Red is holy. Nobody understands it. 

It goes on, on, without the world’s understanding.

Blue is holy. 

Blue goes on without the world’s understanding. 

And the heart…the heart can’t wait. 
Revolts without understanding. 

Boom. Goes on. 
Without the world’s understanding.


—Tennessee Williams
Oriflamme, c. January 1944
