“I was so unhappy then, I’m happy now, I don’t want to talk about it. I stalk her balk, sinister ghost awake in its iron blood. I mask, I hood, avatar of Freud, dreaming traumatic contents.” — 45. of Larissa Lai’s Iron Goddess of Mercy

Because as soon as I see you, a sweat
of agony bathes me - and a whole trem-
bling seizes me, and a fever diffuses
under my skin - I’m sitting right in
front of you. I’m without breath and
without movement - as soon as I see
you breathing fails me
