Self doubt = decentered fear

White supremacy

A historical brain injury

Guilt & shame

Artistic envy

Suicidal tendencies
More tarot-- the empress @the border

A divination dance w/swords

Am I alive or dead? you ask yourself

While coughing blood

Keep breaking through

The empress speaking

Come to terms with the color of your skin

I did not choose to be born Mexican

Next card:

“Not a good day to look in the mirror.”

Poem by Guillermo Gomez Peña

“Conversación fronteriza entre el Sumo Sacerdote y la Emperatriz Suicida”
