«The Flying Lesbians have returned». A poetic manifesto, the idea of a transcorporeal, tactile, sensitive “I/we”. How to express 'us'? We envision 'us' in a time/space of the future. The water rises, and fragments of archive arrive, diffracted from past trans/feminist manifestos, in waves. The archive is mobile and unstable, haunted by specters, like our memory. The lesbian sewer (SCUM) is our revolutionary infrastructure. The water swarms with toxic substances and vibrant microorganisms. No boundaries between our bodies.
«staying moist is our job, / and we know how to do it very well!»
