[image description: two panels from Fun Home by Alison Bechdel. They both show the main character with her face between a woman’s legs. The first panel shows her hovering slightly above the woman, looking down at her. It says “In true heroic fashion, I moved toward the thing I feared.” The next panel shows her with her face firmly planted and her eyes closed, and says “Yet while Odysseus schemed desperately to escape Polphemus’s cave, I found that I was quite content to stay here forever.” End description.]

(illustration) from Fun Home by Alison Bechdel 

“I just dived down. It couldn’t have been too fast. Time was being so slow and warm. And there it was. A pussy, the singular place on a girl, it’s where I’m going. Wiggly thing, like soup. like a bowl.

Another mouth. Like lips between her legs and the taste of it. Piss and fruit. I pressed my face against its bone and it moved. She was letting me. All this was happening. I smelled the future right there, a present and a past. All that went through her, known through the soft sweet flesh of her lips and clit. It was like my face felt loved temporarily. It wasn’t even long this feeling of total rightness. I was telling her clit a story. If there is a warm disassociation this was it: placing my head one night on her warm puss and lapped. I felt plunged into a tropical movie in which light was bathing my head and her pussy, her cunt, her crotch was a warm smile and for a moment I lived in her sun.”

-Eileen Myles
