Patti Smith
“I lived in my own world, dreaming about the dead and their vanished centuries.”
― Patti Smith, Just Kids

John Keats

― John Keats, Ode on a Grecian Urn

Dean Atta
“I imagine us in Eden—
two black boys in Paradise,
naked, no fig leaves.
Adam and Eve are long gone,
so Kieran and Michael
inherit the garden
and the serpent is forgotten
and the fruit on the tree of knowledge
has gone rotten”
― Dean Atta, The Black Flamingo

Danez Smith
“Besides, the only reason
I want to make this is for that first scene anyway: the little black boy
on the bus with a toy dinosaur, his eyes wide & endless

his dreams possible, pulsing, & right there.”
― Danez Smith, Black Movie

Tatiana Obey
“Time was cruel and it was brief. It was merciful and patient. It was fragile and easily broken. It was bright and way too fast. Cherish every god damn moment. ‘Cause spring would not last.”
― Tatiana Obey, Sistah Samurai
