[included with this postcard is a folded sheet of paper with the following poem:]
O leprous lobster! Woman-worm! thy face is One obscene blotch of elephantiasis. Lewd lustful lop-eared manginess of skin Stumps thee with all the scoriea of sin Decaying, festering, spectre of my brain I love thee— Bestial darling swine-pig, loathing leads My rotting breast to apileptic deeds And thou art—God! Ghastly and greasy-grey Thou sits't and suckst my scurring sluse away 6 [illegible] serpent! Woman of the shrine, I spit upon thee, and [illegible my trine In lecherous grimaces—ugh! you beast I really do not love you in the least Spawn of hell's vomit thou, and the unclean Passionate lover of my hideous guller I love thy caucase all the Summer term [illegible] in Calcutta gnaw thy leprous lips For passion and my spotted body clips Thy dog-like nodules, infamous disease And eyes that drip their [illegible] sorceries In foul corroding poison. And above thee Still [illegible] my mangled corpse and yells "I love thee"
Aleister Crowley
