Have you ever noticed that color is stronger at the edges of things? The joining of seams--the folding of metal--the twist of a leaf--all hold stronger and more intense luminescence than the flat, boring surrounding.
I noticed it when I saw where her eyes closed at the edges, and her fingers wrinkle at the knuckles, and where her ear curves through her hair.

    People do seem to have a thing for beginnings and endings. So few are content to be in the middle.

    We even crowd to the edges of rooms.

    I guess people are like color?

    This was sweet.

    I wish it was more true than it is. And if you can figure that out, you might explain it to me. I just said it because I meant it.

    Well, I don't think you'd accept someone else's explanation for such a thought process. Would you?

    I mean, it makes a weird sort of sense to me, but how should I know if it's your kind of sense unless you said so?

    Let's watch Janelle wander in circles in the alleys of her mind.
