The Vestal Virgins
beauty
is a curse
i was
not
blessed with
i’m one
and three
i’ll be
no one
to everybody
someone
to few
the one
to the one
i’ll follow
the path
of the vestal
virgins
while
my body
burns
in a flame
i’ll be
the priestess
of my
own body
i am
Mine.
Editors for The Vestal Virgins not yet setup.
Resonance is the first collection of creative writing digitally published by Ta Voix, and will hopefully be the first of many. Everything within these digital bindings has been lovingly created by young writers, and meticulously edited and produced by young publishers. We are not yet professionals, but we deserve the chance to be.
Not only will this collection of poetry and prose resonate with you, but the anthology will be resounding. We loudly, and clearly proclaim that the literary industry needs to diversify, it needs transparency, and it needs change.
Trigger warnings: mentions of blood, physical violence and self-harm are present on some pages. Please read at your discretion.
