You have effectively captured what I imagine is the tragic confusion of democracy denied amidst abject poverty, the search for meaning and comfort in ancient beliefs that reach back to African origins syncretized with Papal superstitions in a history of violent exploitation that culminates in a woman today selling herself because she prefers life to death.
Couldn't find a flaw...you have a lovely gift and I feel privileged to be witness to your words.

Evocative. I love the gothic imagery and I am always a sucker for a good voodoo theme. I love it.
