Uncomfortable, I lied down on the bed. Denying to do all the chores, I moved my head. Remembering the date, I bled last month Was it the fourth or the seventh?
Felt the painful push and the unwanted blood, It all came out with a terrifying thud. More clothes to rinse hard and wash off the stains, Red water in the sewage and through the drains.
Next day, I walk normal and sit just straight Because Dad must not know the bad fate. From gents, I should hide the pads and the pill, Because handling bare bloodied bodies is a woman’s skill.
Fuck patriarchy, fuck these beasts, Who can’t handle these genital miseries. Why should I feel awkward to buy a pad? Bleeding is okay, it’s the society that’s bad.
