female hysteria

in 1869
dr. george taylor
introduced to the women of the world
the first steam powered vibrator

an iron age monstrosity
meant to supplement
a victorian doctor’s own
pelvic massage
used to treat
female hysteria

a suffering uterus
plagued with heaviness
anxiety
sexual thoughts
and unfortunate states of lubrication

and i would like to boldly say
never was there a time more noble
to pursue a career in medicine
