As such, it shows an attempt to reorient to a life that is meaningful because of earth, nature, beast, \u0026amp; goddess, without any focus for the sexuality with which the flesh, as such, is instinct, \u0026amp; without any sense of social connection. The intensity differs thereby in its focus, though some themes are retained. These are poems about living on, \u0026amp; trusting in the goddess to give the fire \u0026amp; the words one needs to live \u0026amp; feel.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49594897072401,"sku":"GOR013412975","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1471727874.jpg?v=1751306569"},{"product_id":"matangi-assembles-her-rejects-book-david-c-mclean-9781447665533","title":"Matangi assembles Her rejects","description":"This is the second book about Mother Kali from David C.

He has never written better, \u0026amp; he is pretty sure that she is the best muse ever. One can see how, during the writing of this book, McLean suffered a form of nervous breakdown, but that the strength of his feelings for Emma pulled him back together, reassembled his membra disjecta. Love did that. Love heals. Additional themes, as so often, are posthumanism, antinatalism, animals, Lyotard \u0026amp; libidinal economy, \u0026amp; love always, sex \u0026amp; love. The title is, obviously enough, inspired by a song by the Sisters of Mercy.
