Buffy’s Two Bodies

What to do with the bodies of a girl

I wonder, how the girl

Becomes an idea

Of power and dispossession

Simultaneously, like in Spring

Breakers when they stick

Two guns in Franco’s mouth

And he starts sucking on

The barrels (double penetration?)

How the ski masks anticipate

Pussy Riot, and how Pussy

Riot antecedes all martyrs,

Every concept of the messianic

Because there is really only one

So that when they dance

To Britney this is an ironic

Choreography of (female) power

Two remain as if

To evoke the doubleness

Of (feminine) violence

The girl’s two bodies

As they lay waste to the world

I heard Pussy Riot is being freed

And watched videos

Of Voina today, whose art

Pranks landed them in prison,

The video where they shoplift

By secreting poultry

In their vaginas, the video

Where they pretend to

Hang immigrants in a

Department store.
