from The Erl-King by Angela Carter“Eat me, drink me; thirsty, cankered, goblin-ridden, I go back and back to him to have his fingers strip the tattered skin away and clothe me in his dress of water, this garment that drenches me, its slithering odour, its capacity for drowning.”
As much as I try to make the past keep still and
mind its manners, it moves and murmurs
with me through every day.”
