Lydia Zinovieva-Annibal Quotes
I Was Standing Alone With Him When She Burst Impetuously Through The Door, Tall And Wearing A Rain-cape On Top Of A Queen's Costume, A Forgotten Crown On Her Head.
She Directed Some Rapid Words At Him. He Began To Tremble All Over And Dropped My Hand From Under His Arm. Vera Seized Me Cruelly By The Arm And Led Me Off... She Led Me Through Murky, Dusty Expanses, Between Strange Machinery And Constructions, Through Valleys And Mountains And Past A Precarious Wood To Her Dressing-room. And She Still Held Me Cruelly By The Arm. There She Slammed The Door Shut, Rudely Chasing Away Some Handsome Women With The Amorous Eyes Of Worshipers.
I Do Not Recall Her Words. It Was As Though She Were All Aflame. She Kissed My Hands And I Realized Then That She Had Seen Only Me That Evening, That She Had Performed For Only Me, That She Loved Me And That This Was All Such Madness.
("Thirty-Three Abominations")
