Black Blue Purple Pale

Travel on the roller coaster ride of the human mind. Each section in Black Blue Purple Pale captures the emotional intensity of the state of mind that each color represents. Starting with the darkly rumbling inner-pain personified in Black girls with Lithium and Laced Leggings and Creatures of the Night will Divide by Zero and Break the Framework of Society and Self. The darkness melts into Blue where confusion and chaos reign in the world of The Castlebuilder and Quantum Subshells. Things begin to recalibrate themselves in Purple as the speaker discovers a Sensuous and Soporific love that inevitably brews A Fire Inside. Finally Pale represents the speaker's catharsis and emotional maturity. But not completely white Pale leaves the speaker painfully cognizant of the scars and mistakes of the past. A beautiful and modern anthology Black Blue Purple Pale celebrates the great spectrum of emotions--sorrow confusion passion and acceptance-- that characterize personal growth.
