Work in progress
There is an easier way to say this
Like i could just write the point down or say something loosely about female expectations
sort of slide it into conversation where appropriate
Like we're sat at the table and i'm like could you pass me the jug of water please, i've ran out
And funny you should say that because to be a woman is to enter into a constant state of incompleteness
as we strive for what fundementally cannot be achieved
in any sense
And then i'll sip the rest of my drink, place the glass down on the coaster
Maybe cover myself in a trifle if there's one to hand
see how i'm feeling at the time
i wish i could say this was one of those quarantine inspired activities and that i didn't have this planned months before
in a notebook
typed up actually i had it typed up
"yeah dad a pandemic isn't normal circumstances so we can't be expected to behave normally during this time"
something along those lines
