Pain surges through my body, No matter how I sit, how I lay, I feel like I have been stabbed. It’s just period pain. Just is a funny word, it implies it could be worse, Maybe it could, but as the pain travels down to my thigh, to my knee, then up again to my lower back, I’m not sure it could get worse. The nausea kicks in, I feel faint, Am I swaying? I stumble to the toilet, retching with agony, My body tries to get rid of the sin; Of the apple Eve ate, But it feels hopeless. I begin to burn up, So I fling myself to the cold cool bathroom tiles, What else am I to do? The room is swallowed by misery, myself as well, I can do nothing but lay on the floor and take it, Every four weeks, Again and again I am tormented; punished, And for what? What have I accomplished that is equal to this, Monstrosity?

Sweet liquor only ages,                       Sweet liquor only ages, She looks -a still,                   Young looks can **** Oh it breaks my heart…                      It won’t be mine, Bottled-up it gets better,                 Just give it some time. Sweet liquor only ages,                       Sweet liquor only ages, Beauty stop, you stand still,                               Young looks can **** I gave my heart and wasted my time, Let my love out, let go-o-o-o-o… Woman on woman -my Woe! Sweet Liquor only ages,                       Sweet liquor only ages, Here with a feeble mind,                                  Now drinking all the time! Sweet liquor only ages,                       Sweet liquor only ages, Plump lips, her curly hair-r-r-s,                                  Never a boyfriend, -she swears! Sweet liquor only ages,                       Sweet liquor only ages, That body, does it shine?                                        I’m drinking all the time! Sweet liquor only ages,                       Sweet liquor only ages, Sweet liquor only ages,                       Sweet liquor only ages,

Sweet Liquor
Each sunday, the owner's face lit up as I popped in the neighborhood bodega in need of paper towels, soap, toothpaste. Occasionally, when I uttered the word “purple,” his brown eyes glowed and he flashed me a smile as he fetched the Trojan condoms behind the counter. This week, I came in on saturday, he looked pleasantly surprised to see me, earlier in the week. until I reached the counter holding tampons, desperate to stop my leaking body. In my humanity, I was no longer **** not worthy of a smile. Nor the well wishes of a nice evening. His greetings had always had an invisible price tag, exchanged for a glimmer of hope. The hope that his kind words would earn him a discount in the time it took for me to live up to his fantasy one day.
