Quotes by Vi Khi Nao (?)

“God is fucking with my oblivion. If he wants forgiveness, he shouldn’t have given us memory.”
― Vi Khi Nao, Fish in Exile

“Perhaps glass and memories are only painful as fragments or shards. Perhaps if they become diminutive and dusty like sand, they grow very tender and soft and granular and almost loveable. Then pain could slip through me and possibly out of me.”
― Vi Khi Nao, Fish in Exile

“Two naked infants face each other like gladiators. Their hearts have been removed from their chests and placed on their thighs. Their right ventricles are sliced, but left open to the air. They look like the curling, rubber rims of two balloons. The children grab hold of each other’s hearts and begin to drink from them. They throw their heads back like old men downing straight bourbon whiskey.”
― Vi Khi Nao, Fish in Exile
