AmaLilith store by Nausicaa Morgue

For religious reasons I use Posthuman Poetry & prose to promote some beautiful & rewarding work by my brilliant friend Nausicaa Morgue.

I'm pleased to announce the arrival of AmaLilith online shop at Big Cartel, with arts, crafts, & bone sculptures, created without harmful chemicals with traditional methods, by Nausicaa Morgue. The shop is online at this link. There is also a blog that I previously mentioned here.

Nausicaa's products are inspired by, & imbued with, the powers of Lilith, Hecate, Asmodeus, & Astaroth, the goddesses & demons with whom Nausicaa works. Lilith & Hecate are both forms of our Dark Mother goddess, & both of these are subjects of future books by me, obviously. The products, however, are of great aesthetic value even for those of a secular inclination. Some sample photos are included below. 

Whatever one's faith, Nausicaa's products channel the power & beauty of nature, & these pieces, none of which is particularly expensive, are full of life & vitality, fragility & immense power. The Divine Mother has directed me to be of assistance to Nausicaa in whatever way I can, & I think that her artistic expression adumbrates the beauty of incarnate spirit as a simple expression of goddess, in more or less the same way that I aspire to do through words. The pieces are transformative in their celebration of the ecstasy of becoming, rooted safely in decay, of the profound love that preserves the inconsequential, & sees the essential in the interstitial & the liminal.

These are offerings for the crossroads where Hecate & Matangi shepherd the broken ghosts home, the impure purity of the fragmentary that is all that ever deserves to return.

Autoerotic Elegies: Four samples from "Lalita drinks too much"

Autoerotic Elegies: Four samples from "Lalita drinks too much": As usual I post here a few poems as samples from the latest. Here it is at Lulu. Amazon link coming later.

"Lalita drinks too much"

 

The latest in the Mahavidya books is now available, a little more controversial than usual. The Divine Mother wants this one out now, & I am starting a new one about Tara. The order in which these books are appearing is fairly arbitrary. In this book, I discuss Deleuze, Lacan, Nietzsche, colonialism, & spiritual narcissism, & I swear as little as possible while so doing.

The book is on sale here at this link, it is coming on Amazon soon, & the cover & blurb follow.

This book continues McLean's series about Kali Maa & the Mahavidyas & is about Lalita or Shodashi, the third Mahavidya.

The poems are preceded by a lengthy & controversial introduction, where McLean discusses goddess; the selective Nietzschean eternal return as a template for reincarnation; Kali & temporality; the imaginary ego; spirituality & narcissism; the narcissistic nature of the guru phenomenon; intensity & incommensurability; the patriarchy & fratriarchy; & the colonialism to which the tribal peoples in India are subjected.
