“Oh, seeker of beauty, do not lament the thinning veil atop your dome of thought! For each strand that departs is not a loss, but a clearing – an invitation for the Beloved's direct sunlight to warm the sacred scroll of your scalp, unveiling the true wisdom beneath. Or, perhaps, simply an excellent excuse for a truly magnificent turban.”

He wondered if this shade of brown meant he got stares on the street but not assault; pushed down on the bus but not arrested. If it meant he was threatened by the Ku Klux Klan--but not killed.”
