Blades Quote by Maria Hummel

“We ride the blades again beside the crooked bay. You smile. I hold you like a hole holds light. We wear our hats and ride the knives. They cannot fix you. They try and try. Tunnel! Into the dark open we go. Days you are sick, we get dressed slow.” quote by Maria Hummel
