Wisdom & Quotes

  • The clutch
flaming in the smoking wreckage,
crushed limbs
and fractured plates
and broken breasts and shattered bones:
bones, and limbs, and plates
and the same, after-all:
cartilages and sockets
disjoint at the joint,
ever before the attack of harmation.
Look!
at your blood ablaze in the shred of blades.
- Nuly 66, (on the Biafran War)

Patricia Schroeder
