Eleven years old. Beware of boys - all cave, no man. Skirt not enough. You: too much. Mature prematurely. Become woman, early. Beware of boys - all cave, no man. “Nice girls want love, silly girls want to make it.” Mature prematurely. Become woman, early. Having a body implies public property. “Nice girls want love, silly girls want to make it.” The principal measures my hemline. Ruler to thigh. Having a body implies public property. How can my body say something I don’t? The principal measures my hemline. Ruler to thigh. Violation to the dress code. How can my body say something I don’t? Sent home.

Become woman, early. Beware of boys - all cave, no man. “Nice girls want love, silly girls want to make it.” Mature prematurely. Become woman, early. Having a body implies public property. “Nice girls want love, silly girls want to make it.” The principal measures my hemline. Ruler to thigh. Having a body implies public property. How can my body say something I don’t? The principal measures my hemline. Ruler to thigh. Violation to the dress code. How can my body say something I don’t? Sent home.
