According to Buddha

Build your inner environment. Practice Silence. I remember the wonderful discipline of the Great Ones. When we used to talk and chatter, they would say: “Go back into your inner castle.” It was very hard to comprehend then, but now I understand the way of peace.

blue is the colour of night
when the red sun
disappears from the sky
raven feathers shiny and black
a touch of blue glistening down her back
we don’t talk about heaven and we don’t talk about hell
we come to depend on one another so damn well
so go to confession whatever gets you through
you can count your blessings i’ll just count on blue
blue is the colour of night
