I’m tired of stories about the body, how important it is, how unimportant, how you’re either a body hauling a wrinkled brain around or a brain trailing a stunned sheen of flesh. Or those other questions like Would you rather love or be loved? If you could come back as the opposite sex, what would you do first? As if. As if. Yes the body is lonely, especially at twilight. Yes Baptists would rather you not have a body at all, especially not breasts, suspended in their hooked bras like loose prayers, like ticking bombs, like two Hallelujahs, the choir frozen in their onyx gowns like a row of flashy Cadillacs, their plush upholstery hidden behind tinted windows, Jesus swinging from the rearview mirror by a chain. And certainly not the body in the autumn of its life, humming along in a wheelchair, legs withered beneath the metallic shine of thinning skin. No one wants to let that body in. Especially not the breasts again, your mother’s are strangers to you now, your sister’s were always bigger and clung to her blouse, your lover’s breasts, deep under the ground, you weep beside the little mounds of earth lightly shoveled over them.

Far too many people are looking for the right person, instead of trying to be the right person.

Change is inevitable. No matter if it’s good or bad, change is one of the few things in life you can always rely on. Don’t fear it, but feel reassured - you won’t live the same life all along.
