“I wrote Guy Fawkes Tesco Dissociation early in my transition. My life had fallen apart when I came out as a trans woman. My marriage ended and I tried moving back in with my parents, but their reaction to my transition made this untenable. During this period, I was the victim of various hate crimes...
I can’t be fun to be around when I’m not there I hit fast forward
Can’t remember where I’ve been since fireworks across the street
And when I try it’s supermarket lights you held me by the freezer
And then nothing till your doormat slipping underneath my feet
When I push harder something stops me like a forcefield like a membrane
Like two north poles like two train doors closing freezer food inside
But I can see you through the window telling me or telling my brain
It’s not broken it’s my body telling me to run and hide
But it is not me there it’s someone wearing my hair
Telling you I’m okay and I’ll be back soon
But I’m not even anywhere it’s so fucking unfair
They’ve done this and they still sleep in our room
When there’s nothing in my head but the screaming
Got nothing left to dread but my leaving
The tub fills with my blood hits the ceiling
I won’t act but it’s all that I’m dreaming
I can’t be anyone at all so let me skip to the next chapter
Find connection next to true self something larger than my life
Where fireworks can’t reach me and the supermarkets greet me
Where potatoes make the faces smiling warmth from deep inside
The deep freeze freezer you’ll see me there with my breathing regulated
Compensated and forgiving for all injuries I find
With my eye movement I’ll see you dent cans just to get the discount
We can rewind and un-dent reprocess and desensitise
But now it’s not me there it’s someone wearing my hair
Telling you I’m okay and I’ll be back soon
But I’m not even anywhere it’s so fucking unfair
They’ve done this and they still sleep in our room
When there’s nothing in my head but the screaming
Got nothing left to dread but my leaving
The tub fills with my blood hits the ceiling
I won’t act but it’s all that I’m dreaming
There’s nothing in my head but the screaming
Got nothing left to dread but my leaving
The tub fills with my blood hits the ceiling
I won’t act but it’s all that I’m dreaming

A few years ago, I was sleeping on my best friend Han’s living room floor in Manchester for a few nights. I had come out as trans to my closest people back home in Bristol, my life had fallen apart, my marriage had ended terribly, and I had nowhere to stay. I was struggling with extreme PTSD symptom...
