“i am afraid that my anger will keep me alive.”
― Truong Tran, Book of the Other: small in comparison

“the poem. the story, this single narrative. if you must call it art or writing. at least know this. that this was not constructed. this was not created. that kind of creativity is a privilege. that kind of construction is carried out by those with the means. i have no say in this matter. this narrative happened. it is happening to me. i am only retelling this narrative because silence is simply no way to live. silence will not move this body forward. i am retelling this narrative as a way of being.”
