\"Sisi<\/a>Titania<\/strong> (The Tale of the Empress series), 2016<\/em>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Empress loved culture \u2013 the theatre, the art, the poets and the writers…and her favourite play was A Midsummer Night\u00b4s Dream by the enigmatic Englishman. Again, she was not understood at court. Anything else than the topics of power and politics for the gentlemen and relations and gossip for the ladies was unheard of. So she fled again…into her own world of dreams where she could be free. She was the fairy queen Titania, surrounded by peculiar games of love induced by the enchanted dream in the forest.<\/p>\n

Countess Larisch:<\/p>\n

\u201dElisabeth was in love with love, because to her it was the spark of life. She regarded the sensation of being worshiped as a tribute offered to her beauty. But her enthusiasms never lasted long, apparently because her artistic feelings would not allow her senses to be captured…
\nShe should have been enthroned among the gods, she should have been courted on the hills of Parnassus or singled out, like Leda and Semele, by a triumphant Zeus. The coarsness of life repelled the Empress to the same degree that its beauty attracted her.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Empress:<\/p>\n

\u201dAs Ariadne once, forsaken today \/ lingers Titania on the high cliff alone \/ The sun seeks now to pale its final ray \/ High up in the aether the first star\u00b4s light has shone (\u2026) \/ Titania stares immobile into the distance \/ With moistened eye, who gains there now admittance?\u201d<\/p>\n

The Empress:<\/p>\n

\u201dOn luscious summer nights \/ by the full moon\u00b4s sultry glow \/ I often thought: \u201dThis one\u00b4s right!\u201d \/ And rejoiced that it was so.<\/p>\n

Yet always at break of day \/ Pressed to my heart so warm \/ I saw with fright and dismay \/ The ass\u00b4s head upon my arm.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a9Susanna Varis<\/a><\/p>\n
