The Wasps

by David Constantine

The apples on the tree are full of wasps. Red apples, racing like hearts. The summer pushes Her tongue into the winter's throat.

But at six today, like rain, the first drops, The wasps came battering softly at the black glass. They want the light, the cold is at their backs.

That morning last year when the lamp had been left on The strange room terrified the heart in me, I could not place myself, didn't know my own

Insect scribble: then saw the whole soft Pelt of wasps, its underbelly, the long black pane Yellow with visitants, it seethed, the glass sounded.

I bless my life: that so much wants in.

[…] for nothing you have ever encountered is quite so uneven and unsteady as this heart of mine.

'Once there were gods'

Once there were gods, on earth, with people, the heavenly muses And Apollo, the youth, healing, inspiring, like you. And you are like them to me, as though one of the blessed Sent me out into life where I go my comrade's Image goes with me wherever I suffer and build, with love Unto death; for I learned this and have this from her.

Let us live, oh you who are with me in sorrow, with me in faith And heart and loyalty struggling for better times! For such we are! And if ever in the coming years they knew Of us two when the spirit matters again They would say: lovers in those days, alone, they created Their secret world that only the gods knew. For who Cares only for things that will die the earth will have them, but Nearer the light, into the clarities come Those keeping faith with the heart's love and holy spirit who were Hopeful, patient, still, and got the better of fate.

~ Friedrich Hölderlin, Translation by David Constantine

“...This is a child.”

“This…” Commissioner Gonzalez heaved a deep sigh, fingers slipping under the bridge of her glasses, “Is your new partner, Detective Grayson.”

“With all due respect, ma’am, this is an entire 6-year-old child.”

“I’m eight, so shut the fuck up.”

“Somehow, kid, that doesn’t make me feel any better.”

⋆♱✮♱⋆ 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍 ⋆♱✮♱

𝒌𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒖 𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒔' 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒂𝒔 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔:

johnny utah, neo, jack traven & john wick: 'tragic hero' lovers - they would fight for your love undoubtedly, "sacrificing" themselves for the sake of the relationship

david allen griffin: 'yandere' lover - beguiling, male siren; psychotically obsessed, will literally kill anyone who gets in their way in favour of your love. probably stalk or kidnap you if he had to. he doesn't take no for an answer, he WILL get you and you WILL comply to him and his warped fantasies

ted logan: 'high school sweetheart' lover - innocent, goofy, dorky, neurodivergent boyfriend that cherishes you cutely as the "bodacious babe" you are, gradually growing up with you and marrying later on, solidifying the 'excellence'. childhood sweethearts....

you'll also have a daughter called Billie (i know, just don't ask.)

kevin lomax, donnie barksdale & johnny silverhand: 'toxic' lovers - first two are both dangerous men who will jeopardise the relationship selfishly for themselves. one is a greedy lawyer who sold his soul and one is a hillbilly redneck who's a serial wife-beater & racist. one, however, is just a sleazy foul-mouthed terrorist who holds strong radical, anti-mainstream beliefs. he's not dangerous like the other two but he is not a nice guy

julian mercer: 'the ideal type' lover - this guy is an all-in-one, a dream come true, sent from heaven, everything you'd wish in a man is him. he is perfect. husband material core, the dream man ™

alex wyler: 'soulmate' lover - predestined love wandering aimlessly in an alternate world. your souls are meant for each other but you just don't know yet or you don't exist in the same timeline

john constantine: 'secret' lover - he has a deep crush on you but doesn't tell you, for some reason. probably because of his ego to just maintain that cool guy aura, or he's just a shy guy

scott favour: 'friends with benefits/affair' lover - a short bittersweet romance that was full of deep sensuality & soulful friendship but he'd eventually break it off to go back to his wealthy life. don't be too disheartened, he still misses you

matt & rupert marshetta: 'typical teenage' lover - you guys were best friends but decided to turn that spark into romance. you're both teenagers and most likely aware of the notoriously short expiry dates of young adolescent love but it's nice to live in the moment

These men are heavily involved in magic, the supernatural and/or witchcraft. Not only is Hecate known as the Goddess of Witchcraft but also necromancy, ghosts, crossroads and transitions. Therefore, these men are multidimensional - some can literally shapeshift; change faces, etc. Some have other powers, as their ambitions lay in different types of magic. This is how you can spot a Variant of Hecate - they’ll always be interested in magic. And some may have a dark side.
