The book starts with this text:
Equal opportunity by Stanleyson Antas
How long has it been
Since you came around here
Talking about my freedom
And all the little things you gonna do for meTalking so much about this and that
And how you’re gonna come improve my lifeUp in the mountains where I’m sitting
I see the whole world arising
Isolation gives me higher understandingI’m relying on myself
(…)
And since the day you walked out my door You haven’t heard my voice
And ends with this text:
The Shadow Matriarch by Stephanie Ephraim Lekal
(…)
We carry the weight of new life It lives out of us
and we live out of it
the future of the nationYou’re the blood of my vein Emerged from my darkness Once a cave
Now a palaceOnce a scar
Now my tattoo of glory
