EILEEN AGAR & HALINA POSWIATOWSKA
Soy Julia
Tengo 23 años
Una vez toqué el amor
tuvo sabor amargo
de café negro
aumentó
el ritmo del corazón
irritó mi cuerpo vivo
meció mis sentidos
se fue
.
Soy Julia
en el balcón alto
suspendida
grito vuelve
llamo vuelve
pinto los labios apretados
con el color de la sangre
no volvió
.
Soy Julia
Tengo mil años
estoy viva -
- Halina Poswiatowska. Versión de Bárbara Kolodziejczyk
- Valentine Penrose (1898-1978) por Eileen Agar, c. 1940

La condesa sangrienta
Tumblr media
Eran los tiempos en que la cincoenrama poseía aún todo su poder, en que en las tiendas de las ciudades se vendían mandrágoras cogidas de noche al pie de los patíbulos.

al things considered — when i post my masterpiece #1242
Tumblr media
first posted in facebook november 20, 2023
roland penrose -- "winged domino (portrait of valentine)" (1938)
"la route est plus large que longue" … roland penrose
"in an ordinary portrait the woman comes forward to meet whoever looks at her, and tells her own story. but here, the real woman lurks a hundred leagues behind the equivocal gaze, entirely closed to herself, a plant rooted yet in the mysterious soil out of which it has come" … valentine penrose
"as a student at cambridge, he had an extravagant amorous relationship with another man. for the rest of his life, he was perpetually entangled with beautiful women. his first wife, valentine, was a bizarre lesbian poet who suffered from 'some undefined mental disorder' and had a painfully undersized vagina that prevented penetrative intercourse. his second wife, the american model and photojournalist lee miller, posed for many picasso portraits, including several versions of ''l'arlésienne.' between and during marriages, penrose shared his bed with the wives of several friends, as well as with a dazzling array of exotic women, including a trapeze artist and bear trainer from a local circus, to whom he proposed several times. he remained on good terms with old lovers and was fond of the lovers he encouraged his wives to take" … andrew solomon
"the alley is less narrow than it is muddled" … al janik

Viens avec moi dormir dans le lit de ces ancêtres Où furent élaborées les forces de ta beauté vive. Reviens ô surprenante. Aux rideaux de tes hanches  Où je me tiens agenouillée Plus que nulle autre n’a prié Je te prie de me laisser dormir et me mêler aux temps.

In her there was nothing of the ordinary woman who, instinctively, would flee in panic before demons. The demons were already within her: in the gloomy depths of her huge black eyes; and her face was pallid from their ancient poison. Her mouth was sinuous as a little snake, and her forehead was high and proud as the former was unflinching. The chin, resting on that great flat ruff, had the flaccid curve of insanity, associated with this or that outlandish vice. […] In an ordinary portrait the woman comes forward to meet whoever looks at her, and tells her own story. But here, the real woman lurks a hundred leagues behind the equivocal gaze, entirely closed into herself, a plant rooted yet in the mysterious soil out of which it has come. Her hands with their delicate skin are exceedingly white; one sees very little of them, yet quite enough to ascertain that they are long;…

One day you get up and see yourself featured with the legendary poets of the world. No, I didn't feel thrilled, exhilarated, or chuffed. I just wept a silent tear, as anything meaningful I have created has a sorrow behind it. My poem The Tree, translated into Portuguese by Francis Kurkievicz and published in the Brazilian journal Rivista Acrobata (link in the bio). Thanks to the editor. In the great company of Forough Farrokhzad (Irã, 1935-1967), Miguel Márquez (Venezuela, 1955), Natalie Diaz, José Carlos Becerra (México, 1936-1970), Kristin Dykstra (United States, 1970), Samar Shahdad (Iran), Nadia Anjuman (Afghanistan, 1980-2005), María Ángeles Pérez López (Spain, 1967), Mía Gallegos (Costa Rica, 1953), Rita Dahl (Finland, 1971), Carina Sedevich (Argentina, 1972), Zofia Beszczyńska (Poland, 1951), Renée Ferrer (Paraguay, 1944), Elsie Surena (Haiti, 1956) and legends like Hans Arp (French-German / 1886-1966), Maurice Blanchard (France 1890-1960), Paul Éluard (France, 1895-1952) Juan Eduardo Cirlot (Spain, 1916-1973) Nishiwaki Junzaburo (Japan 1894-1982), Aimé Césaire (Martinica, 1913-2008), Célie Diaquoi-Deslandes (Haiti, 1907-1989), Rubén Bonifaz Nuño (México 1923 – 2013), Stella Díaz Varín (Chile 1926 – 2006), Louis Scutenaire (Bélgium, 1905-1987), Radovan Ivsic (Croácia, 1921-2009), Alice Rahon (France, 1904-1987), Dusan Matic (Serbia, 1898-1980), De Joyce Mansour (England, 1928-1986), Leopoldo María Panero (Spain, 1948–2014), Jorge Gaitán Durán (Colômbia, 1924-1962), Max Blecher (Romania, 1909-1938), Olga Orozco (Argentina, 1920-1999), Aimé Césaire (Martinique, 1913 – 2008), Kansuke Yamamoto (Japan, 1914 – 1987), Marianne Van Hirtum (Belgium, 1925-1988), León-Gontran Damas (Guyana, 1912-1978), Valentine Penrose (France, 1898-1978), Dusan Matic (Serbia, 1898-1980) and some others. #tree #thetree #poetry #poetsofinstagram #translation #pourtuguese #legends #revista #revistaacrobata #KSC https://www.instagram.com/p/Cet3-gGvVet/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Devil Woman! Devil! Devil!” With evil on her mind? Join your faithful Grue Crew – Doc Rotten, Bill Mulligan, and Jeff Mohr along with guest host Gregory Crosby – as they take a trip to the land of Hammer with Ingrid Pitt and Nigel Green in Countess Dracula(1971).
Decades of Horror 1970s Episode 210 – Countess Dracula (1971)

Grue Believer Celebration Shenanigans continues with this review of Countess Dracula (1971), selected by special guest host and Decades of Horror fan Gregory Crosby. In this episode, the Grue Crew tackles another Hammer film from the Seventies featuring the stunning and talented Ingrid Pitt in the title role. While the film has no fangs and has little to do with Dracula, it borrows heavily from the legends of Countess Bathory who is said to have bathed in the blood of virgins to restore her youth. Countess Dracula is far more serious and mature than many of Hammer’s offerings throughout the decade and is well worth a revisit. Check out the Grue-Crew discussion to discover why.
At the time of this writing, Countess Dracula is available to stream from Classic Horror Movie Channel, Wicked Horror TV Channel, Shudder, AMC+, and Tubi. The film is available on physical media in Blu-ray format from Synapse Films.
Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1970s is part of the Decades of Horror two-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1980s. In two weeks, the next episode, chosen by guest host Dirk Rogers, will be Trog (1970). Directed by Freddie Francis; produced by Herman Cohen; written by Aben Kandel; starring Joan Crawford & Michael Gough; and with dinosaur scenes by Willis H. O’Brien and Ray Harryhausen? It’s gotta be great, right? Right? 
We want to hear from you – the coolest, grooviest fans: comment on the site or email the Decades of Horror 1970s podcast hosts at [email protected].

What is certain is that there existed between Erzsébet and the external world something like a vacuum, like the padding in a madman’s cell. The eyes of the portrait proclaim it; she wished to seize and couldn’t touch. Then, the wish to be awake but not to be alive, that is what kindles the taste for blood, the blood of others; perhaps this was the hidden secret which, ever since her birth, had been obscured from her.
The Bloody Countess, Valentine Penrose (Trans. Alexander Trocchi)
