The Terrors of the Night by Thomas Nashe
"Reading the reviews on this page I can’t see much love for Nashe’s little essay. That is hardly surprising. Extracted from the context of his other works, and without historical introduction, it is a curious and unsatisfactory beast. And yet I love N" Read more of this review »

“i don’t think i’ve ever felt so cold
than when i saw my dad cry
or when i tumbled into a gutter
folded
like a
paper swan
and slept in the rain.”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman

“in this raging, poisoned sea at night,
it is just me
and death”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman

“not before i have prayed in the rain,
washed the blood from these old bones,
not before i have stripped away everything
that remembers you and stepped into heaven
as a naked star”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman

“i feel like a woman’s words
in a man’s book.
there
but in his voice”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman

“i am drinking sauvignon
while my housemate shags upstairs
and i will write poetry
before the night is through.”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman

“all i can think is that aphrodite
was born from the severed penis of a god
– so what would come of my tits?”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman

“and she will throw apart concrete to find me,
will raze these buildings to the ground
with a smile on her face and the smell of my sweat
teasing her tongue”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman

“i’ve never won a bet
but i saw god in the bathroom mirror
and found my mother’s maiden name
carved beneath a seat”
Elizabeth Train-Brown, Salmacis: Becoming Not Quite a Woman
