‘ Queers fuck for pleasure , not for babies and that frightens a lot of people .’ ~ Cis woman , bisexual
( She / Her )
We conjoin and fall into freakishness . A freakishness that invites repulsion and fear because we pursue an eternal suffering . You climb inside me . My rancid insides open , as sweat wets contagious and diseased skins . It dries in scaly patches , along with other secretions that leak from cursed orifices . My eyes roll back as you rut like a wild beast . Men would rather go blind than look at us . So we exist in the dark . Lovers who survive in shadow and damp corners , conjoined and hunched over like underground creatures .
