"Love Song I lie here thinking of you:– the stain of love is upon the world! Yellow, yellow, yellow it eats into the leaves, smears with saffron the horned branches that lean heavily against a smooth purple sky! There is no light only a honey-thick stain that drips from leaf to leaf and limb to limb spoiling the colors of the whole world– you far off there under the wine-red selvage of the west!"

- William Carlos Williams
