Quotes

  • Sandra Viviana Chisaca Leivahas quoted2 years ago
    O filth of Death

    who can clean you out

    O laugh of Death

    you crack me
  • Sandra Viviana Chisaca Leivahas quoted2 years ago
    the bolt leaving the wall

    the sword sinking up to its own mouth

    O my queen

    I did not see
  • Sandra Viviana Chisaca Leivahas quoted2 years ago
    a state of exception

    marks the limit of the law

    this violent thing

    this fragile thing

    try to unclench

    we said to her

    she never did
