Shower Conspiracy (unfinished)

Shower Conspiracy (unfinished)

A Poem by Lizzie Mitchell

how is it I can be so filled with indignant rage

yet as soon as I leave

so do those feelings

as though the water were riddled with sedatives

that carressed my body and gently seeped into my pores

forcing me to emerge calm, peaceful, and non-threatening

because I swear I was a different person in there

not this seemingly doped up and muted version

before I was an activist

I spoke wisdom

I expired inspiration

I would not hesitate to speak upon approach
