IMAGINED COMMUNITIES, “meanwhile”, literary world

ABOUT Entice with Disgust (Part IV):

Crossing of boundaries conversion story –

‘Now, my sweet, now that you have sat on my knee for some considerable time, my two arms encircling you, it is time that we continue with our other lives, bringing to an end the intermingling of our voices, I in the sky and you on earth below as it were, and I already forget now if it was really I who took this form to dive below the waves of the sea and save you, or if it was you who spoke the story to me while I slept, but forgive me if I cried out words which I should not have, my bristle breath and spit upon your soft cheek, while we dreamed.’
