Challenge
Hey there, random proser. I have a question for you which varies based on your genetalia (you'll understand why in a moment; I promise I'm not sexist.)
If you are biologically female, describe what a period cramp feels like. Or, if you have given birth, describe the pain.
If you are biologically male, describe what it feels like when someone hits etc your family jewels.
I understand this will likely make people uncomfortable. But I feel like many people have trouble describing pain and also, as writers, we write about tons of gory topics or *crude* things and thus are used to this kind of stuff (at least I think we are and I know I am.)
Thanks for reading this and good luck.
Ibuprofen
It's your friend
while your uterus tries
killing itself
from the inside out.
"PSM," that's what it is
getting high off the pills
you down just to feel sane.
Don't mind the bloating
I'm just pregnant from the salts
I've forced down my maw
$0.99 potato chips
the dollar store is your friend.
Don't mind the Moses
stepping into the Nile River
that drowns your senses
leaves you limping
clutching your stomach
writhing in the sheets
eggs are dropping
it's only a matter of time
before the week's up.
