Dear God, Make Me a Lesbian

By technicolour-girl

Nobody likes me anymore, not even me.
But men like my body which affords me company,
but only for a little while.
I should rent my room out by the hour.
I should rent my womb out, go... devour.
Because it makes me feel empowered,
when I sleep around.
And oh how I do...
I really, really do since you've left me.

No, I do not want to be your girlfriend.
No, I do not want a committed long term relationship.
No, I do not want to go on a date.
No, I do not want to meet your perfect little suburban family who lives in a house with a white picket fence around it.
I want to ruin you, like he ruined me.
I want to fuck you, then leave you.

I eat the vulnerable hearts of men for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
I cram my mouth full of tissue and arteries.
I spit up blood in ecstasy.
And though I ingest, I feel no nourishment.
And while I digest, I feel content,
knowing that I've destroyed someone like you.

Im not capable of suicide,
believe me, I've tried.
So I declare a gender-cide.
I want all the men in the world to die.
I'll light your hearts afire.
Burn, mother fuckers.
Just burn.

    Heh... I hear you. I wish it was as easy to ruin a man as it is to be ruined by one. God damn double standards. In any case, I know how you feel. Well, giving girls a try is not a bad idea. It's what I'm doing right now (and luckily that's quite easy where I am-- a women's college).

  • A former member wrote: you stopped my breath and stole it with this.. amazing! and if you ever become a Lesbian, ... Girl!! :) I get first dibbs on you!! lol~Rain

    The way this piece was written hit like a kick in the face. You've managed to capture a lot of passion and I love it.

    well... definitely honest and direct, and that's the core of any good work...

  • A former member wrote: I love how all males commented.

  • A former member wrote: Except me, apparently... and maybe FairyBreath.

  • A former member wrote: Oh, and for the record, this is incredibly passionate (though bitter). If I were a lesbian, I would pray to God for a woman with a fire as untamable as yours.

    So powerful and raw. There is so much hurt in these words. Especially loved the second last stanza. Awesome piece.

  • A former member wrote: You capture with words what I have felt so mnay times but couldn't communicate. I loved every word and can 't wait to read more of your work.

    I was hanging off every word, I'll lend my heart for a good ol' burning, as long as you PROMISE to give it back when you are done...

  • A former member wrote: Well, there is a definite forcefulness and power to this. Even though I pretend to be a fallen angel, I'm still technically male, so I'll tip-toe on off now.
