007 :: green

---

Green: the color of life, usually. Green, rolling hills; green branches of trees; green moss sparkling in the dew and golden glow of sunrise.

But green is the color, too, of death: a sickly green, a puke green, a mold green. Horrible hospital green or asylum green.

Yet it's green for go and green for prosperity and green for a sustainable future. And maybe Green for president!

I'd never thought the spectrum would be so spectral, resist so completely the binaries it visibly fights. Metaphor, for once, has not broken down.

All this is making me want salad for dinner.
