My Fair Isle

There ain't no answer.
There ain't going to be an answer.
There never has been an answer.
That's the answer.
- Gertrude Stein

Dialogue with our neighbor's son late yesterday afternoon as I sat (decadently) spinning in our backyard.

Him: "why isn't that blue?"

Me: "well, there is purple"

Him: "that's not blue!"

Me: "so, you like blue?"

Him: "NO!"
