“She is not my equal; she is my better. She is my sticky little leaf.”
“You are my sticky little leaf. My beautiful, sad, sticky little leaf, and I want to see you happy and whole.”
“And then I understood that she had no idea what she'd done to my family. She thought love and hatred were equal.”
“My father moved through theys of we,singing each new leaf out of each tree,(and every child was sure that springdanced when she heard my father sing)...”
“And she was mine, she was mine, the key was in my fist, my fist was in my pocket, she was mine.”
“She's my daughter. She's my sister.”
