Rosa Decidua Quotes

“Tis like the dripping of some stagnant rain
From the housetops of a ruined city
Upon the flagstones. Not one petal clings
Upon the stalk of life or memory. Stain
Not one pale thought with blushes ; my soul’s dead
As a corpse flung out of the tideway on
The stinking flats of London mud.”
― Aleister Crowley, Rosa Decidua
