  • Sasha Midlhas quoted2 years ago
    Everything you did to me,
    I remember.
  • Sasha Midlhas quoted2 years ago
    I was an ugly child
    You were an ugly child
    We were ugly children.

  • Sasha Midlhas quoted2 years ago
    Mama, I made it
    out of your home
    alive, raised by
    the voices
    in my head.
  • Sasha Midlhas quoted2 years ago
    Are you there, God?
    It’s me, the ugly one.

    No one leaves home unless home is the mouth of a shark
  • Sasha Midlhas quoted2 years ago
    No one leaves home unless home is the mouth of a shark. You only run for the border when you see the whole city running as well. The boy you went to school with, who kissed you dizzy behind the old tin factory, is holding a gun bigger than his body. You only leave home when home won’t let you stay.
  • Sasha Midlhas quotedlast year
    I don’t recognize my own children
    they speak and dream in the wrong language
    as much as I understand
    it may as well be the language of birds
  • Sasha Midlhas quotedlast year
    Diets of excess, deep allegiance
    to the adage “If you don’t laugh, you’ll cry.”
    And they laugh so hard they weep.
