God, Death, Love
God, Death, Love, Loneliness, Man
are important themes in Literature
menstruation, childbirth, menopause, puberty
marriage are not
meanwhile terror lies exactly in how
one lives with the disintegrating body
in how one accepts that the body no longer
wants to intensify with exhilirating detonations
in how one loves the more-and-more-slaked-ones
in how one resigns to vaginal atrophy and incontinence
or that the blade cleaving through one's heart
is probably a heart attack
to jump from the ageing body to Death
has suddenly become a cop-out act
