Y La Bamba - Juniper

I like the names used for the shades of a color. Take yellow for example. There's gold, lemon, mustard--the list goes on and on. I like that familiar nouns are used for the names; it makes for quick and easy association. Like jaundice? I know that exact shade of yellow.

Anthem for a 21-Year-Old Girl

Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back. That's part of what it means to be alive. But inside our heads - at least that's where I imagine it - there's a little room where we store those memories. A room like the stacks in this library. And to understand the workings of our own heart we have to keep on making new reference cards. We have to dust things off every once in awhile, let in fresh air, change the water in the flower vases. In other words, you'll live forever in your own private library.
