“The lover and the beloved are the two vases of the sand-glass. The sands flow from one into the other. Love turns the sand-glass upside down. Desire flows from one into the other the beloved exhausts the lover then the lover overturns the beloved in order to love him then the beloved takes back from the lover the product of love in order to exhaust it then the lover overturns love in order to be loved then the beloved overturns love inexhaustibly and there’s no present. Desire falls from one to the other body.”

“This is what I desired: to be the immaterial production of the peace of his body, to add myself to his death, to be the rippling transparent sheet which envelops him and in the very time of weaving to dwell in the most secret part of the chest and mingled with the oldest of his desires to linger to efface myself on the endless edge of his Most Near body. To be dreamt of him as I dreamt him.”

“I gaze at his face night and day I hold his face in he grip of my eyes I double each breath of his with one of mine and I work relentlessly I secrete a thread with my nerves each millimetre of this thread wears me down to the heart but I move forward and I display a unique capacity for work stitch after stitch I sew and create the being who cannot not be, this creation is infinite but always the blow comes where it is not anticipated I believe him to be strong and suddenly
He tears himself.
And my body is empty right down to the heart.”
