I will most likely return to this, but I’ll have have to start it over from scratch! I just wasn’t in the right headspace to process it, but I’m still very interested in reading it!

It was here, on our verdant hillside, that my mother first taught me the poetry of greenery. She showed me how to suckle language from each bloom. It was a blessing, she told me, to live as one with the earth. 55
Afterward, I went outside to the lawn and lay my ear flat on the grass. I had stepped past an invisible threshold into another life, and I could hear it talking to me. I pressed my ear into the earth and the earth softened. My dreadlocks grew roots into the dirt, anchoring me there, each lock entwining with the deep roots of the trees, their voices reaching upward and growing into me. 89

Que dire à part... C'était magnifique. Très dur. Mais très beau. Très bien écrit. Un joyau de poésie en prose par moment. Et aussi dure que soit l'histoire il n'y a pas de violence sexuelle au centre !!! Ce qui est vraiment très appréciable.
