DIRTY FEMALE REALISM

Find yourself somewhere between the lines.

Up and down

like a yo-yo

twirling between

your once loved

fingers

in and out

like a monthly

cleaner

getting rid of

your dirt

hiding the dust

under the bed

together with

forgotten underwear

and long hairs

from women

that are less

loud

or

less angry

or

less hurt

or simply…


less


than me.


there are

no words left

to write

for you

or songs

to slowly whisper

in your ear

my poems

will now belong to me

and the songs

will be just an echo

outside your doorstep

I will not break

glasses against

the walls

I will not scream

inside my pillow

or punch the door

you will never see me

angry as you wished

because you will

never see me

again

and remember that

these words are

everything

or maybe

words

might be

my only thing

My pen

is stuck on

the paper

like a baby

on his mom’s

nipple

and here is

what the baby

wants:


Give me

Raspy voices

Give me

Yellow fingertips

Give me

Half empty glasses

Give me

Smoky coats

Give me

Slow ass pianos

Give me

Scarved skins

Give me

Red cheap wines

Give me

Open windows

Give me

Unmade beds

Give me

Crazy men

Give me

Leather boots

Give me

Unknown poets

Give me

Drunk old women

Give me

Empty corner bars

Give me

Film noir

Give me

Vintage pots of tea

Give me

Smelly books

Give me

Wrinkled newspapers

Give me

Black coffee

Give me

Therapy sessions

Give me

Spiritual gatherings

Give me

CLICHES



What if

the world

would stop

spinning

for a minute

and I could

clearly

hear

the sound

of the

surroundings

the jazz

of the city

the boom bap

of the

cleaning cars

the dizzle wizzle

and the clinging

of metal hooks

screaming

from the wind


What if

the world

would stop

spinning

for a minute

and I could

clearly

hear the sound

of synchronized

hearts

beating

in a walking bass

rhythm

and the

passing cars

like brush drums

slowly whispering

in my ears

melodies that

I have never

imagined before


What if

the world

would stop

spinning

for a minute

and I could

clearly

hear

the rolling strollers

and the baby screams

like high pitch

trumpets

crying over shoulders

in tune

with women

in orgasms

of around 180 bpm

while I stand

in the middle

of my street

closing my eyes

and

singing


words

words

words

that make sense

only to me.
