                                        THE SALTY KISS OF


                                    CIXOUS ON MY PSYCHE


                                                       By Beverley Hayward



                                               In this vast and expansive ocean,
                                               Filled with the salt of the water,
                                         Whence the écriture feminine is conceived,
                                                     I write my own story.

                                          In this expansive, liquidation of the space,
                                           The dawn breaks in the place of the Real,
                                      Bursting with the crimson sparks of the Imaginary,
                                             I felt the lips of Cixous on my psyche.

                                                 In this landed salty-seascape,
                                             It is where the sea embraces the sky;
                                            A place in which, the strangers' stories,
                                                        Are celebratory.

                                       It is here that I feel their kisses upon my psyche.
