Audre Lorde Quote

I have survived
the gifts still puzzling me
as in the voice of my departing mother
...
teaching me how to die insisting
death is not a disease.


Our Dead Behind Us (1986)


I have survived the gifts still puzzling me as in the voice of my departing mother ... teaching me how to die insisting death is not a disease.

I have survived the gifts still puzzling me as in the voice of my departing mother ... teaching me how to die insisting death is not a disease.

I have survived the gifts still puzzling me as in the voice of my departing mother ... teaching me how to die insisting death is not a disease.

I have survived the gifts still puzzling me as in the voice of my departing mother ... teaching me how to die insisting death is not a disease.
