More information
Modern Virgin
I am not a woman. I am a neuter.
I am a child, a page and a bold resolve,
I am a laughing stripe of a scarlet sun...
I am a net for all greedy fish,
I am a toast to the glory of all woman,
I am a step towards hazard and ruin,
I am a leap into freedom and self...
I am the whisper of blood in the ear of the man,
I am the soul’s ague, the longing and refusal of the flesh, I am an entrance sign to new paradises.
I am a flame, searching and brazen,
I am water, deep but daring up to knees,
I am fire and water in free and loyal union...
Edith Södergran
