The Madness of Saturn

Or: On Saturn Devouring His Son

By Stephanie HoogstadPublished 3 months ago • 1 min read
Saturn Devouring His Son by Francisco Goya

Paranoid? Paranoid? Don’t you see?

A child of mine will usurp me!

I do not know which one, so

I must devour them all

Forget what that will

Beget if they

Survive; they

Never

Will
