A SACRIFICE
She shaved her hair first;
A clipper shorn the locks
Like grass, like clipped hedges
To the floor.
Then she scraped her eyebrows,
Pinched her nose hairs
And clipped her goatee.
She finally looked feminine.
Next she lathered her limbs,
Set the shaving stick to skin
And scraped every follicle of hair
From her legs; rinse, soap, scrape.
She drew a dark line
On her swollen eyebrows,
Hiding the bald spot with a pencil, then
Her hands roved over her body.
It felt smooth like baby skin,
Like sweet sin,
Like a kind of body
A man would want to lie with.
She opened the door and found him
On the bed, soap and remote,
Watching a hairy girl
Giving a blow job to
Another hairy man.
She touched her eyebrows
And felt the bead of blood.
No sacrifice was worth this.
If she bled her throat
He still won't have noticed.
