Stuck in colors

Hey readers,
Welcome back to Tuesday's Takeaways!
This week our Top Quotes are about colors! You may recall that we already did a blog on colors last semester, but I'm fascinated by the ways colors breathe life into writing, and since today is national color day it seemed like a fitting blog post!

• ​Takeaway trivia this week: According to physics, what colors from this post aren't recognized as colors at all?

"She keeps her dark sorrows
Consumed in a black hole" 
-Noor Ahmad, Little Did He Know

"I then recall, we possess a fickle heart that pumps, blood red
that is forever at the whims of time, misled."

“Let’s not sell the car anymore,
Antic and Orange,
Can we save it for VINTAGE?”

“You’re probably sitting reading
One of those long books
That I only realized you finish
Once you write it on a piece of yellow paper
Fold it twice
And put it on my palm
“This one’s a good one”
-Hafsa Fatima, Stained Pages

“I’m standing in a darkness of green, distraught.
A maze ahead.
Decisions. Decisions”

these four white walls caving in on me”

And now...
White and black! Technically, according to physics, a color is defined as visible light with a specific wavelength. Since white is every single light combined and black is the absence of light, neither of them bear a specific wavelength. 

Stay tuned for our post next week and be sure to attend our SPOOKY SOIREE this Thursday! <3
