I write:
‘There is no other like me.
I am obession, dramatic breath, heart of lies ad eyes of passion.
My words are arrows and my speech weapons.
And when I move, nature blends under my steps.
I did not choose such actions.
Powers have been revealed to me at the age of fecundation.
With my first bleeding came a sense of sacrifice.
Sex, devotion and incarnation became necessities.
I am not only the servant of my own pleasures.
I am a mirror of illusions : mythical beauty of concret attraction.
I can not be alone.
At night, an angel comes to me.
There is serenity in his words.
As I am lying my soul dances in the most heavenly sky.
He embraces me until the morning and only then, as a godess, I can sleep.
I am left with physical sensations, some sudden visions of past or future ?
and in my mouth, the most delicious taste of fresh bloody love.’
