“When they made love / Geryon liked to touch in slow succession each of the bones of Herakles' back (...) / from the base of the neck / to the end of the spine which he can cause to shiver like a root in the rain" Autobiography of Red / Anne Carson 🖤

Anne Carson x 2 *faro

"To feel anything
deranges you. To be seen
feeling anything strips you
naked. In the grip of it
pleasure or pain doesn’t
matter. You think what
will they do what new
power will they acquire if
they see me naked like
this.
If they see you
feeling. You have no idea
what. It’s not about them.
To be seen is the penalty.”


"Come here, let me share a bit of wisdom with you.
Have you given much thought to our mortal condition?
Probably not. Why would you? Well, listen.
All mortals owe a debt to death.
There's no one alive
who can say if he will be tomorrow.
Our fate moves invisibly! A mystery.
No one can teach it, no one can grasp it.
Accept this! Cheer up! Have a drink!
But don't forget Aphrodite--that's one sweet goddess.
You can let the rest go. Am I making sense?
I think so. How about a drink.
Put on a garland. I'm sure
the happy splash of wine will cure your mood.
We're all mortal you know. Think mortal.
Because my theory is, there's no such thing as life,
it's just catastrophe"
