"demigoddesses" poems
hard-candy crunches between chattering teeth--warm blue drool pools down wet chin. wet skin reeks of chlorine, and swimsuit sticks to piggy thighs and pancake chest. eyes are everywhere: eyes to stare and judge and mock and compare. it’s unfair how these other girls eat chips and pizza yet their bodies are set to be nubile marble demigoddesses living off six pomegranate seeds. i am teenage Taweret. the unforgiving spandex drips upon the floor, as if i had peed. quick! get a towel, you’re ruining the parquet! leg bones, feet bones hit the floor, followed by white waves of flesh, always late, rebounding wetly. bones and fat. soggy pig bones.
