Carol Rifka Brunt Quotes
I Sat On A Bench And My Mother Stood In Front Of Me, Looking Down The Track. Her Hair Was Cut Short, And Because It Had All Turned Gray When She Was Twenty-three, She Always Had It Dyed A Deep Chestnut Brown. It Was That Color All Over Except For A Super Thin Stripe At The Top Of Her Head, Where The Gray Showed Through. Sometimes I Wanted To Touch That Place On My Mother's Head, That Thin Crack Where Her Real Self Had Forced Its Way Through.
