Notebooks of a chile verde smuggler

p.5-29

quote #3
-"i drop my burdens, from my feet that guide them, i drope my burdens..."

-i found the saying they use, i drop my burdens, very interesting since it could mean many things. to most people, you would look at these two pages as something that doesn't make any sens and jsut repeating it self. what it means, is that he dropped his worries and everything that he didn't want. and he describes the parts of his body and what they did to be a part of these bad things.

quote #2
-"The father guitar cuento song eternal, the mother no longer sacrificiaall, yet holy, the son, now walking, always walking, the house, gone up in tribal ashes, gone south to emptiness, gone to the earth sky river melody, no chain, no shame, no name."

-i love this quote because it represents a fmaily inside their house. but not only that. they talk about the family and what they do and then tell us that their house, where everything happened, went up in ashes aaand now there's nothing left.
