VENUS (Very Empowered Nymphs Uplifting our Sex): Revolution (2019)
Time Touched Lover
Lulled shivers
of post-coitus sighs
from fur quake
exhaling soft rings.
Cellulite stretches and
a mole marked majora
wrinkled smiles
of a stretched perineum
and receding scrotum
curling behind terse
grey hairs.
My time touched lover,
we are orgasms in stillness.
New Year’s Vagilution
(in February)
This year I would like to give my vagina more attention
to awaken my cunt kundalini
majora, minora, and fury
she’s all Venus vagintata
What an asshole!
(Hello!)
(No, I’m not talking to you)
Cycle appropriated
IUD installation fee
(Comes with free Wi-Fi. Password: T1T5)
Reiterate school lessons
Don’t touch, don’t look, don’t smell, don’t tempt
I touch and look and smell and tempt
Proud of my homeostasis
“Hair”
A Short Comic about Hairy Turmoil
Patchwork Survival
The seams are coming apart
gotta stitch them back up again
patchwork survival
invisible scarification.
When your fingers grow callused
from the hard-pressed pencils
When you’re asked to read aloud
and you stumble over the words
When English feels jagged and cuts your tongue
When the redneck on the corner calls you
a towel-headed heathen
When the security at the airport searches you
because your last name has too many syllables
and you have to be hiding more somewhere
When your knees give out during the mile run
and the class goes on without you
When your white shorts bleed through
When Mama calls you lazy after your backs been broken
When the family says your brother is killer crazy
When the world is laughing at you
Just Smile
Smile Bitch Smile
But when your little sister
plays in your footsteps and stumbles
drowning in the laughter of the crowd
when the woman on the subway is shrinking
as the men consume all of her space
When the crying boy on the playground
Gets slapped in the face for not being a βmanβ
When plural pronoun meets singular homophobic aggression
Smile
No
Cuz you see
us bitches
travel in packs
and when one falls,
We all bite.
