OH GOD, I HAVE A BODY

By | 1 May 2019

Every time I
have a pap smear
it is a nightmare

I got my first one at uni
The doctor asked if there was any chance I was
pregnant
I said no
I am a Gay
She said
“oh good
we probably don’t need to swab for STDs then”
As if lesbianism
makes me immune
to diseases

The second time
the doctor told me to sing
to relax
She said it would
make the procedure
more comfortable

This year
my doctor
struggled to find my cervix
“You won’t find it”
I say
“It’s a myth
Like a saucy Loch Ness Monster”

To distract me
from the pain
she asked me what my comedy is like
and
if it is hard to work freelance
