Two Poems
imagine being the type of man whose first wife fakes her own pregnancy & divine masculinity
by Zofia Provizer
CW: abortion
imagine being the type of man whose first wife fakes her own pregnancy
unborn wrinkled leather
in clementine
skin, orange in the bowl
in the middle of the dining
room table: unborn
half empty dishwasher spinning clean, de-
vein shrimp and ice and the cracked
mirror on the corner of
number given & text
received. the radio is thunder
in the summer-
time & i mourn every
day. imagine
being the type of man who snap
chats the abortion reveal, holds the
breath, metal
in the hand.
divine masculinity
What’s the difference between coming
and a pig roast?
I wish someone
could get inside me
that way. Spit fire
naked, cock
down & ass up, lying
in wait.
