Poem by Alda Merini

from Aphorisms and Spells

As I am Catholic
I have never played.

I’ve had
thirty-six lovers
plus tax.

I am the most chaste woman
in Italian literature.

I am completely
asexual
not counting errors
and omissions.

Mount Sinai
is sometimes confused
with the Mons Veneris.

No one can know
what is
between me and God.
