Ritual ecstasy meets playroom noir, A Promise allows for the feminine in all its mythic, erotic, and grotesque forms. The speaker offers herself up as a kind of prophet and a pet and a plaything. She moves toward transcendence and then is pulled back to the body----crawling across a well-lit room, shitting the world's largest pearl, birthing half-lambs into open fields. The mythoscape created is one of flesh and feeling, touch and prayer.
