"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.
