Come closer, little mother reborn, let me hold you. Let me cradle you in my arms and feel your soft breath.

You look as you did in life, Eileen, beautifully broken. A butterfly with torn wings. Does it hurt when I press on your broken arm just so? And does it sting when I trace my numbers in your back? You are twenty, a beautiful whole number for my beautiful mother.

Your eye is closed to me, dearest Eileen. Even a ghost must sleep, it seems. When you wake, you will resume your haunting of this place, with your sighs and moans, with your riding crop and chain.

You are my greatest creation, little mother, my pretty girl, my sweet. And when you wake I shall watch your stumbling strides through my little world, and hear you cry and rail against me and what I have done to you.

And what have I done to you, my Eileen, besides bring you to fulfillment just as I shall someday bring the world to fulfillment?

Let me stroke your hair and inhale the scent of blood. Let me kiss you, because even in death, I can only kiss you when you sleep.
