coming HOME TO MYSELF.
shift of focus towards my insides.
MOTHERING what is in the
beginning stages of growth.
creating space for me
to be held by
WHO I AM.
.
a random guy talked her up
on the street,
looking at her,
as if she was a piece of meat.
INSTANT DISGUST.
‘feel like coming to the river with me?’
- ‘no, thank you.’
‘excited to do anything else with me?’
- ‘no, I really just wanna go home.’
‘you’re boring.’
- ‘yes, I might be.’
‘boring is SHIT. everything you’re saying
is SHIT. probably you’re SHIT, too.’
+ he left.
GO FUCK YOURSELF IN THE CORNER,
FUCKING PERVERT,
she wanted to scream,
but unfortunately was
too polite for that.
.
I’m WORTH so much
more than that.
I deserve to be treated
with respect
+ to be seen
for the beauty of
my ENTIRE BEING.
