MIDSOMMAR (2019) dir. Ari Aster On this, the day of our deity of reciprocity, we gather to give special thanks to our treasured Sun. As an offering for our Father, we will today surrender nine human lives. As Hårga takes, so Hårga also gives. Thus, for every newblood sacrificed, we will dedicate one of our own. That is: four newbloods, four from Hårga, and one to be chosen by the Queen. Nine in all, to die, and be reborn, in the great Cycle.

Venus and Tannhauser (Lawrence Koe, 1896)
birthmark-poetry reblogged
salem
around sunset
the sow
leapt four feet in the air
gave one squeak & fell down dead
the farmer’s banjo arm
a cursed ear
clutched in his palm
& the perley’s sick cow
who went mad
ran into the pond & drowned itself
surely the raving tree
slave to the wind
spoke a proposition through the leaves
found a restless soul
obsequious & broken
& claimed it
this harlequin woman
jinxed the village with a strand of her hair
once
she even uttered a poem
conjuring sweet ambergris from plague
blame belongs with her
in the ground
in the crevice with elizabeth howe
the witch’s mark upon her
away from the sycamore & its wooing limbs
the trials of piously high anxieties
already the genius
draws a diagram for killing
ann putnam junior
her most aggressive accuser
laments
fourteen years later
walks the ruins of her own future
what could a twelve year old know of executions
the piss & shit of hangings
what furrows a child’s mind
ask the mother
ask the wasp in her mouth
feeding a puritan’s satan fetish
a small gnarly man they say
with cloven feet
approximately the height of a walking stick
first comes anger
followed by mischief
fools
he is the walking stick
& who will carefully
lovingly guide
the blind widow of elizabeth howe
