[00:00.12] Once she was a mystery of life.
[00:06.40] Now she is skyping with her friend
[00:11.39] They are both childless.
[00:14.75] It rings a hollow tone: childless.
[00:19.86] No longer a mystery of life.
[00:23.53] Just less. She found stretch mark cream in an Airbnb bathroom.
[00:35.14] It was just cream. Rubbing it on her belly, she felt nothing
[00:47.96] I was just an accident
[00:52.97] I was just an accident
[00:59.14] I was just an accident, even to myself
[01:11.84] She is curious about crying *******.
[01:18.05] To her friend she finds herself saying:
[01:21.88] I wonder how I have managed to avoid conceiving,
[01:30.42] You know, by accident.
[01:35.41] So many years. So little fruit.
[01:40.87] You know, maybe I would have just kept it.
[01:45.64] "Probably I can't even do it", she says
[01:51.33] She eats dried figs from a container
[01:57.44] I was an accident
[02:03.41] I was just an accident
[02:09.68] Once I was an accident, and a mystery of life
[02:17.53] Once I made people believe in miracles, or God, or love
[02:27.19] I was the hour of the star, I was the hour of the star
[02:32.34] I moved like a jellyfish
[02:35.15] I smelled of nothing
[02:38.21] She was told she was the closest her mother came to magic.
[02:50.07] She is made for other things.
[02:55.69] Born for cubist yearnings. Born to write. Born to burn
[03:07.24] She is an accident (She is an accident)
[03:13.69] She is an accident (Flesh in dissent)
[03:20.09] She is an accident
[03:24.91] A curious androgyne
[03:30.63] She is an accident (She is an accident)
[03:36.43] Flesh in dissent
[03:41.72] Flesh in dissent
[03:51.97]
