after the last hurt is turned inward;

Additional quotes by Joy Harjo
Some things on this earth are unspeakable:
Genealogy of the broken — A shy wind threading leaves after a massacre,
Or the smell of coffee and no one there —
In Isleta the rainbow was a crack in the universe. We saw the barest of all life that is possible. Bright horses rolled over and over the dusking sky.
There is no poetry where there are no mistakes.
