Playboy
by Molly Kat

At nine years old
I was teased


for stealing the magazines
on the back of the toilet


my father, called me
a lesbian.


I cried, shoved
my fist 


in my mouth, until
the corners of


my lips
bled.  I waited eight years


then fell in love
with hard, pink nipples


made sure
the corners of her lips


never bled.
