Night by day
She lies, no, she does not
she is sick, terribly sick
Let us pray for her
save her if she wants it
if she kneels for mercy
We appeal to her
conscience, her shame
and to the night
in which no one can live
who has known the light
She is hysterical
sedate her
cut it out
of her brain
or short-circuit it
Out-of-home placement
not for protection
but cast out
as a liar
among the righteous
Documentary "Ik was een kind" ("I was a child", 2025, Geertjan Lassche): the story of Anneloes van 't Licht
Until recently, a woman who made a scene about her husband's adultery could be treated for hysteria with a lobotomy or electric shocks
Princess Nyctimene ('she who stays up at night') was turned into an owl as punishment for fleeing into the forest after being ***** by her father
Nyctimene is also the name of a genus of bats
