chewed, torn nails, painted red,
like the blood from the womb.
body like an hourglass, owed to
hours of starvation equaling feminine beauty;
being a woman is so easy, it has to be.
six pack (beer or muscles?)
shredded and emotionally unavaliable at the same time.
feelings aren't allowed in this house,
no matter what male suicide rates look like.
being a man is so easy, it has to be.
patriarchy: one of the many human inventions designed to destroy everyone.
