ryan c. taylor// wet wombs

this week was spent celebrating young mothers in heat.
restless and fierce.
anvil eyes groping wet men.
receiving living advice from ne'erdowells at coffee shops
teahouses.
surfing the strips.
begging for a starring role in a snuff film.
contemplating irrational decisions with community college
drop outs and bicurious trustfund musicians.
contemplating me.
yearning for 5 minutes of regret.
disregarding the 3rd party.
young mother, swallow me.
with loose skin.
let your womb accept this offering.
head first.
young mother, resent this.
seek therapy.
work me out.
this week was spent celebrating you.
young mother.
you.
who calls in sick to your new life.
whispering obscenities at your seed.
you.
lactating and ill.
moist in all the wrong places.
you.
adolescent and careful.
harmful.
shameful.
retreat to the art wards, young mother.
drink your fill and elevate your soul with acetone speed.
pontificate.
fake the fuck.
forge the feeling.
romanticize misery.
