she’s tart she’s tough
taurine and tattoo ink
she’s prickly she’s pulpy
plasma asphalt thick
she’s churned she’s curdled
coagulated treacle
she’s sickening she’s saccharine
sambuca and tequila
she’s noxious she’s noisome
nicotine dipped sherbet
she’s mildewy she’s mouldering
and full of microplastics

Becca Fang is a Belfast-born, Brighton reborn writer of magenta drenched melancholy. She is the only person who truly understands Donnie Darko (2001) and, no, she won't explain it to you.
