In my first four days
I went to the beach twice
And didn’t burn
And at nine days
riding in the backseat
I’m Happy
in a way I realize I
haven’t felt in years
but it’s familiar—
like a rediscovered memory
In the growing category of
“How could I not have known”
My frequenting of forums about castration
(in the early days of the net)
reading people’s accounts (if believed)
of not only what it was like
Physically and
Sexually
but the circumstances that led to them
being castrated
Health concerns
Accident
The ultimate act of bodily submission
(apparently pairs well with mushrooms)
The dislike (or fear) of a sex drive
And one of the most common,
To suppress desires
towards sex adverse partners
One detail
that has stuck with me since
was one man’s description
of how the taste of chocolate
Transformed
once he was free of
testosterone
A whole different experience
and pleasure
He felt sorry
non-castrated men would never experience chocolate
like a woman or a eunuch
And now as my testosterone drops
and is replaced
I can’t help but test
and see if my taste
has shifted
If it does
Confirms I am changing
If not
I always suspected that story was bullshit
I wonder
will I have to update
my FaceID
or will my phone
still see through
I pinch the edge of the table
to balance
unprepared for the maintenance of existing
I am definitely getting tits
not much
but a certain heft and
weight
and the subtlest shift
in how shirts drape
This is real
Sept 7th (9 weeks and four days)
and I’ve told my dad
“Is this a surprise?”
“I had wondered, but thought
asking would be meddling”
Sept 14 and I see it in my face for the first time
under my eyes
not where I expected
and I couldn’t say even what exactly
Other than different
and sudden
(it was far from the first time
I’d scrutinized my face that day)
Oct 18th
and my first
“Miss”
outside a gas station
through a shapeless silhouette
why don’t you learn to speak another language with me? // we’ll make it on our own // a brand new vocabulary // we can speak it to ourselves // use it for our thoughts // we’ll build a grammar // because what we need is rules // how many words do you think we’ll have for each other? // how many words for ourselves? // how many words?
