It Was a Pleasure Having You in my Car<br />

UNBECOMING:<br />
“The Young-Girl only<br />
exists as a Young-Girl<br />
within the system of<br />
general equivalency<br />
and its massive circulatory<br />
movement. She<br />
is never possessed for<br />
the same reason that<br />
she is desired. The<br />
very moment one acquires<br />
her, she is taken<br />
out of circulation,<br />
the mirage fades, she<br />
sheds her magic aura<br />
and her nimbus of<br />
transcendence. She’s<br />
stupid and she reeks.”<br />
Tiqqun, Preliminary Materials for a Theory of the Young-Girl<br />
We live vicariously through her “self discovery” and her<br />
fucking.<br />
We hear her on her birthday eating pancakes at a diner in<br />
New Mexico,<br />
she says “I’m having a great time!” She has a mullet<br />
now, she’s a stag.<br />
Her mother tells her its okay to be confused about her<br />
sexuality, “but please don’t wear Old Spice.” She aspires<br />
to be this frozen boy.<br />
