Joy Harjo Quote

When you were born I held you wet and unfolding, like a butterfly newly born from the chrysalis of my body.


In Mad Love and War (1990)


When you were born I held you wet and unfolding, like a butterfly newly born from the chrysalis of my body.

When you were born I held you wet and unfolding, like a butterfly newly born from the chrysalis of my body.

When you were born I held you wet and unfolding, like a butterfly newly born from the chrysalis of my body.

When you were born I held you wet and unfolding, like a butterfly newly born from the chrysalis of my body.
