Call Me By Your Name

Send us Fan MailThe main title of this episode, Call Me By Your Name, is taken from the text of a letter written to Whitman by one of Whitman’s admirers - none other than Bram Stoker, the author of Dracula.Trickle drops! my blue veins leaving!O drops of me! trickle, slow drops,Candid from me falling, drip, bleeding drops,From wounds made to free you whence you were prison'dFrom my face, from my forehead and lips,From my breast, from within where I was conceal'd, press forth red drops, confession drops,Stain every page, stain every song I sing, every word I say, bloody drops…Let them know your scarlet heat—let them glisten;Saturate them with yourself, all ashamed and wet;Glow upon all I have written, or shall write, bleeding drops;Let it all be seen in your light, blushing drops.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
