White Stains is a poetic work, written by Aleister Crowley. The title is based on onanism. White Stains contains various poems which can also be regarded as individual works. The majority of these poems are overtly sexual in content. Crowley claimed that he had written White Stains for the purpose of rewriting Richard von Krafft-Ebing's Psychopathia Sexualis in a lyrical form. As with other works of Crowley, obscenity is celebrated. David Bowie references 'white stains' in his song Station to Station.
