“Like clay was the sand in my fingers, moulding into hooded, echoing figures. Past clay voices mixed with sea water, gurgling words of anger and blame. I now smear sand clay upon my dress, white linen heavy with new marks. I carry the harsh voices as I spin around and open my arms to the lighthouse. [New Clay Linen]”

“Violence needs a cause and a purpose. Attacking an unarmed fellow? – You’re a coward. Sacrificing the blood of the innocent to gods? – You’re a beast. Saying those sacrifices are different from us? – My foot, we are all human. However, when my family, my country, my people are threatened, it is no longer only about me. When that happens and one does not take arms and pierce the heart of their enemy, again, they are a coward.”
