Bathroom Intimacy

Bath water knows secrets you keep hidden from the world. It knows

your dirty ideas, your dirty folds. It knows you more intimately

than anyone or anything else. Even the undergarments are jealous.

The water knows that you're nothing but a base beast, full of

perverse underbelly grime in all of us, the sins that cannot wash

away. It sees what you're doing in that bathtub, imagining yourself

alone. It knows when your smile is fake, knows that you're not as

clean as you think, knows how beautiful you are by yourself.


The water reflects this only to you, but you rarely take time to look.

Too often, you let it slip down the drain along with your beautiful

dirty secrets.
