you who swallowed a falling star

I’m just going to become a nudist
clothes are so fucking uncomfortable
I hope that Rick Santorum waits like five weeks for a book to be returned to the library and then they let someone else take it out even though his name is on the reserve list first.
“Sadly the propaganda campaign launched in the 1960s has taken root. The radical feminists succeeded in undermining the traditional family and convincing women that professional accomplishments are the key to happiness.”

They’re just good for heterosexual sex, making babies and cleaning up the house, right, Rick?
Amazingly, about half of half of the country is nonetheless prepared to vote for this spiteful dick.
(via the New York Times)
why do tights have to be so qt yet so goddamn uncomfortable
It makes sense that Jesus, the new man 2,000 years ago
was a carpenter.
You need that craft, the precision of measurement
angles of angels
who incidentally are never women.
Just ask the Romans, who called them Angelo, Angelus
never Angela—
that lie was coined by a dissident nun hiding
her feminism under the cover of rapture
but
is it enough to announce yourself?
To beat your chest in contrition calling
Mea culpa! Mea culpa?
Guilt can never be enough
Mere intent—where is its purpose?
Yet there are no answers
there are only lines that disappear
into horizons that girder us with safety
just as there is no way to end this poem. — excerpt from unholy women by chris abani
