Kerry James Marshall, Woman with a Heart of Gold, 1992.
And so I was sentenced to life in prison.
Only, I heard it prism. So here I am
at the heart of the crystal. Every day I get a new cellmate,
White Light. I won’t do what he does.
He breaks down.
And then he’s released, of course. But
changed beyond recognition.
At the Heart, Albert Goldbarth
