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.
