Poetry
To Be a Girl by Sarah Freligh
We’re bleeders or will be. This is what they tell us in a dark room, blinds drawn, rows of desks just so
We’re bleeders or will be. This is what they tell us in a dark room, blinds drawn, rows of desks just so
Life revolves around someone else’s gravitational pull, and it’s never enough.
She tells me how she discovered the zombie spawner in her chest. Says it’s better to create & keep them than to encounter one in the liver-dark blindness of forests.
And there, in the underpass that’s always flooded, we joined our puzzle-piece teeth. We ignored the graffiti.
