Revolutionary Petunias

The Nature of This Flower Is to Bloom.
Rebellious. Living.
Against the Elemental Crush.
A Song of Color
Blooming
For Deserving Eyes.
Blooming Gloriously
For its Self. 

-"Revolutionary Petunias," by Alice Walker

The Color Purple

"I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it."-Alice Walker, The Color Purple
