“I know what ugly looks like
when it departs from your mouth fully formed.

How the words can push space between two people;
how it's close to impossible to collapse that space.”
Elizabeth Acevedo, Clap When You Land

“To think quick & strike hard, to speak rarely, but when I did, to always be heard.”
Elizabeth Acevedo, Clap When You Land

Elizabeth Acevedo
“I tug on my graduation dress, that was my priest meeting dress,
that is now my visa interview dress. I am clothed

in beginnings & endings. A lucky & unlucky garment.
But isn't every life adorned with both?”
Elizabeth Acevedo, Clap When You Land

Elizabeth Acevedo
“If you asked me what I was,

& you meant in terms of culture,
I’d say Dominican.

No hesitation,
no question about it.

Can you be from a place
you have never been?

You can find the island stamped all over me,
but what would the island find if I was there?

Can you claim a home that does not know you,
much less claim you as its own?”
Elizabeth Acevedo, Clap When You Land

Elizabeth Acevedo
“I did not laugh with him. He must have realized
his laugh was like one of those paper shredders
making a sad confetti of my hopes.”
Elizabeth Acevedo, Clap When You Land
