“"I’m sorry I killed you, but you were mine to destroy" is a grotesque realization of a pre-breast reduction experience. A humorous interpretation and love letter to my old boobs, I hold space for elective bodily change and transformation: I don’t regret the things I have done and the ways I have changed you; you were part of me and now you are not. So, I’m sorry that I killed you, but you were mine to destroy.
