Morning
VomitEvery morning an urge
of vomiting is happened
It is a sense of being oppressed
A trick is here
An intention to vomit but without vomit
Such desire of vomiting is a
manifestation of fighting for suppression When the women without space
for any personalization
They want to vomit expressing their inner struggle
for autonomy
Controlling for vomiting is also taken place
The
myth is that
Women can make a relieve when intend to vomit
They discipline
themselves not to vomit for being conformed bodies Morning vomit is a resistance
for being marginalized
Night vomit is a prohibition of the exhausted women
who want to sleep by Zenobia Chan, student, The Chinese University of
Hong Kong

"So
much has been said and sung of beautiful young girls, why don't somebody wake
up to the beauty of old women?"
