From outside the tank, through crimson red glass framed by dark metals, you could see a face. It was a fair face, one of charm and prominence. The body looks gelatinous, as if the weeks of incubation and chemicals had smoothed it down.

arms out,head down
release the
small water drops

from my,
burdened arms

but,
it is my head

that gets the pain.

i am reminded
of my non female body

and that is why

Can't see any clearer

When I take a shower

Might just be my top half
But it still hurts on my behalf

Please be more sensible
Know this is the truth
