-Dalton Trevisan, from “The Vampire of Curitiba,”originally published c. 1972 (via violentwavesofemotion)
“Just like you are, I want you like you are, your body has nothing to do with it, what does your body matter? It’s your luminosity, your magic, your energy, nothing in you is shadow, may the light in you live, I exist because you dreamed me palm to palm, I exist because at each instant you remake what isn’t sad in me. The vertigo of your existence, beloved.”
Hilda Hilst, from The Collected Short Stories & Writings; “Agda,” c. 1963
"I could not soothe."
-Anne Sexton, from The Complete Poems of Anne Sexton; “Madonna,”
