Rosario Castellanos Quote

I rock my pain to sleep like a mother her child
or I take refuge in it like a child in his mother
alternately possessor and possessed.


Meditation on the Threshold (1988)


I rock my pain to sleep like a mother her child or I take refuge in it like a child in his mother alternately possessor and possessed.

I rock my pain to sleep like a mother her child or I take refuge in it like a child in his mother alternately possessor and possessed.

I rock my pain to sleep like a mother her child or I take refuge in it like a child in his mother alternately possessor and possessed.

I rock my pain to sleep like a mother her child or I take refuge in it like a child in his mother alternately possessor and possessed.
