"It is terrible to be trapped in the wrong story."
- Magdalen Rising, by Elizabeth Cunningham
A pesar de su intento de ir con calma, de forma lenta para que ella no se sintiera agobiada con la necesidad de salir corriendo, a veces le sorprendía. La escocesa salía con algunas cosas que dejaban al lobo completamente mudo. Lo dejaba patidifuso y no podía negar que era algo que le gustaba. Significaba, al menos para él, que ella iba tomando cada vez más confianza como para decir las cosas de forma directa, sin andar con pies de plomo. Era bueno. Que se abriese, que disfrutase con la vida y que no tuviera siempre miedo. Se detuvo en mitad del paso para colocarse justo en frente de ella, mirándola intensamente a los ojos. ¿No sabía que para él su corazón era lo más preciado que pudiera tener en esos momentos?

I didn't even know what a whore was, but I must have had a premonition. I knew I was fucked.

resurrection ferryboat by Elizabeth Cunningham
we take a chance on the Easter morning ferry just before seven, sunrise and moonset, clear skies coffee a dollar in the box, we roll on board west into the wind, the sheltered back deck all ours moon disappears into wave, sun finds our faces more layers, more coffee, salted nuts, warm and fed my son goes off to roam the boat, I sit alone gulls winging dark against sun-dazzled sky and sea this way of water and light leads from life to life my son returns from watching seagulls ride the wake I tell him: this is the best Easter of my life really? he says. what surprises him I wonder? except for when you and your sister were children, I amend, Easter egg hunts and chocolate rabbits. but this, I gesture, sea, sun, gulls, this is Easter I say things I haven’t put into words before about rites and beliefs I don’t need anymore this moment, already memory, is enough
So I say, if you are burning, burn. If you can stand it, the shame will burn away and leave you shining, radiant, and righteously shameless
