It’s like eating a mermaid.

girls love all girls love lovelove pink glitterdeep cuts razor
thigh speakforth new shiny guttermouth push strong happy blood crave blood taste
blood old women bloody show post post post past women fold into themselves where are your heroes girls blood girls scrape scabs
sing in tiny cars a secret I do not bleed goddamn done soft soft body warm I
lick my palms absorb tell secrets taken & take my hair white pure white blazes
in furious rooms I blaze I answer I know I ride I curry I repair I build I master
I bore I birthed I rose in this my surge oh darlings slipslip the bit of trying
let wind slap your thighs on storm nights this ten fold & bright alien stars shine through your dresswhitedress young girls bleed on white skirts fly blood banners kiss
your women friends on the mouth holy kisses secret delicious last night a bolt
of thick red silk wound itself around my body my firebrand now blood has gone
fire in me & we begin again never think me ancient you will cry for your
mother this is the way it is

This is an anthem for women.
And this: "kiss your women friends on the mouth holy kisses secret delicious last night a bolt of thick red silk wound itself around my body my firebrand now blood has gone fire in me & we begin again"
We are pure sorcery, this says, and I love that.
Darling R, I think this kind of anthem is utterly necessary these days don't you? It is not an easy time to be old or a person of color or anything other than heterosexual white male ugh such a hateful time right now and down through the ages. love
