_**Teaser**_

_Maddening padding_

Padding myself
 For existence dear existence.

Failed orgasms, unfailing pregnancies,
 Multifarious abortions, Miscellaneous Clots,
tissue, protein lining Discharged. Pads wrapped, replaced, Thrown into reusable 
bins as refuse.

Though,
 Is fetal tissue reclaimable? Is a woman’s discharge reclaimable? Is an 
Indian woman’s discharge reclaimable?
