Lexie

January

I am naked except for a towel, holding a showerhead and aiming it at the bath plughole, but it is beating me. The clot from my period, which I am chasing around the plug, veers from side to side.

It’s laughing at me, like everyone is laughing at me, because I’m weak and I’m also so unpregnant, unpregnant, unpregnant.
