Mall Water - Jenna Jaco
Date idea:
choose any local stagnant fountain
and I'll take us to the bottom, skate
your fingers through the sludge
(my mouth on your wrist),
Pond Bitch
It's 2004, 2024, and we're all "at the circus, for some reason." In Mall Water, Jaco delves into the interplay of gender, capitalism, the built environment, and the buy one get one horrors of existing in public. It's the stress, it's nascent adulthood, it's just that one hallway and you can avoid it. It's the jeans, but it isn't. You're 17, 20, 24 and washed in the worst kind of lighting. You're alive and real and want people to want to touch you and it is the worst kind of awful. The most graphic of tees will not save you. Eventually you'll find the right department store exit. Eventually you'll feel this in your bones.
