Girl That Smells Like Period


the girl that smells like period

force-fed meat

scrub the floor

nobody likes her

she sits all by herself

 

the girl smells so bad

her pants are wet

her body’s a garbage

 

cancerborne

seeped in sweat

seeped in bleach

too fast to trust

cheese that stinks

let me cry

 

I didn’t know you hit so hard

but the recoil hurt more than the shot

 

I don’t shave

does that bother you?

straight from the horse’s mouth

it makes me sick!

 

privileged men drown in your silver spoons

you can smile and be a villain

sexism and racism dies with you

 

machismo only rapes and kills the world

feminism heals it
