“Unholy,” said Lucifer, “I take it, is the opposite of ‘Good.’” “Lots of things are the opposite of ‘Good,’” answered God. “Shut up.”

Unholy Virgin
BLACK BREATH / UNHOLY VIRGIN from Emily Denton on Vimeo.
“Unholy Virgin
” by Black Breath
from Heavy Breathing
“Darkness growing on the blood
Obscenely birthed from space and time
Conceiving void from the empty skies
Reverse the birth canal
Strength of her wellIt never breathes
Ovarian plague
To enter in is to enter void
The kiss is alien
The touch forbidden
Dare you enter?Unholy virgin
Dare you enter?The womb is the stars that cradles all breath
Wait to possess you on an unholy ride
Inside of time there is no rest
Embrace the sinner for one last kiss”
William Blake and the Imagination in Ideas of Good and Evil by William Butler Yeats.
“He cried again and again that every thing that lives is holy, and that nothing is unholy except things that do not live—lethargies, and cruelties, and timidities, and that denial of imagination which is the root they grew from in old times.” [via]
