“your antlers like seaweed,
your face like a wolf’s death mask,
your mouth a virgin, your nose a nipple,
your legs muscled up like knitting balls,
your neck mournful as an axe....”

What dreadful noise of waters in my ears!
What sights of ugly death within my eyes!”

let it be pantomime, this last peep show,
so that I may squat at the edge trying on
my black necessary trousseau.”
