Call me Cameron
Call me Arlo
Call me Ariane
Call me by your name.
I’ve been estranged by this society
Patriarchy
Misogyny
Rape culture
I came to hate what’s mine
Breast,
Stomach,
Arms,
Anckles,
Vagina,
Lacerated to not feel
Or rather feel things differently.
A way to own my body
My pain
Not someone else’s disgusting claw on what’s mine
I come here today to reclaim my power
My body
Not yours
My name how ever I choose it to be
My pronoms
Not your preconceived idea of what a women looks like
Let’s break the binary of this world
Hoping not to break my skin
To slice it open
It’s flesh pouring blood
Do you feel alive now ?
I’m trying something different
Something hard
Existing in my own body
Without the incest wounds of an electroshocked grand father
Without the Belgium taste of a rapist sex addict
Without the claw of a beast mermaid
Without the guy who punches holes in walls
Deliver me from evil
That I may resurrect into my own sanity.
