Elegant Life

…To seek out, to study, to immerse oneself in, surround oneself with, beauty; to be conscious of one’s dependence upon those who create it or, like the performing musician, re-create it. 
 
Very little matters apart from this.
 
 
— Joyce Carol Oates, from a journal entry

“He waited for you all night long.
 
Go run to him, go run.
 
I’ll finish up my winter song,
 
For you. It’s almost done.”
