A twitch
repeating erratically
somewhere in the recesses of my lower abdomen.

shifting waistband doesn't help

Did I put on weight this month?
Are my **** getting bigger?
(No, no they're not, you vain little peacock.)

I don't feel bad
or heavy
or strange.

And I've been good about the pill.

It must just be gas.

**Thump.
