Joyce Carol Oates Quote

My love: you make me permanent
like old unlovely clay relics
unearthed in the Egypt
of the ancient dead.


Invisible Woman (1982)


My love: you make me permanent like old unlovely clay relics unearthed in the Egypt of the ancient dead.

My love: you make me permanent like old unlovely clay relics unearthed in the Egypt of the ancient dead.

My love: you make me permanent like old unlovely clay relics unearthed in the Egypt of the ancient dead.

My love: you make me permanent like old unlovely clay relics unearthed in the Egypt of the ancient dead.
