my girlhood has left a taste in my mouth like rotting something. like all the words I’ve never said have beached themselves belly up on my tongue. lifeless.  like they’ve been there for years, floundering, desperate for a breath of air. screaming without sound has left its stale imprint on my mouth.  now when boys kiss me, they tell me they feel like they’re trying to resuscitate a mannequin, a doll, a living corpse.  as if I’m dead, and I don’t already know it.

a conversation: question - where does your sadness go? your anger? your lust for life? a wild girl like you, it should overflow like bathwater gone cold, gone cold as bone. where has it gone? what have they done, what have they done with you?  answer - where do i begin but the simple answer, though nothing feels simple at all. i’ve buried it with the broken toys and the dolls still in their cases. beneath blood-stained mattresses and under the velvet-choked insides of a jewellery box cage. does that answer your question?

“Of all the female sins, hunger is the least forgivable; hunger for anything, for food, sex, power, education, even love. If we have desires, we are expected to conceal them, to control them, to keep ourselves in check. We are supposed to be objects of desire, not desiring beings. We do not need food: in many ways, we are food, trainable meat, lambs queueing up to buy mint sauce. We consume only what we are told to, from lipstick to life insurance, and only what will make us more consumable ourselves, the better to be chewed up and swallowed by a machine that wants our work, our money, our sexuality broken down into bite-sized chunks.”
— Laurie Penny
