I drank some dirty water
Shook evil hands
I’ve done some bad things
And they get easier to do
Shook evil hands
I’ve done some bad things
And they get easier to do
Thinking about how I love the word ‘slut’. I always have. It’s not an insult to me, no matter how viciously it’s hurled, and no matter who says it. It’s empowering, it turns me on, I even love how it rolls off the tongue. Ssssstretch out the S, luxuriate in the roundness of the L, a begging exhalations gives you the U, and the T, is a crisp tap of tongue to teeth. It is a plump, dewy little word, it snaps and gushes like a cold grape betwixt your teeth. It holds a certain tension, tightly coiled, so it can be spat when said with venom. It’s a perfect word.
I had a good friend
I could only destroy
And lovers I loved less
Than anybody could afford
And lovers I loved less
Than anybody could afford
