"Ineradicable vent of being, oracular mouth

absolute beginnnings without which negation is impossible

the moon the virgin

mother

patroness of harlots 

Queen of the Underworld Empress of Demons

Destiny with a terrible face

Goddess of the white wheat deliver us from guilt

Jocasta. Jocasta. Jocasta. "

                                                                        A quotation from Angela Carter's The Passion of New Eve

My love of this work stems from its capacity to harness the imagination and yet question reality

& the self....

which is

....the antithesis of expecation and the ordinary, 

beautiful tormented deceitful sublime....

a bewilderment of fragments.
