Hi, everyone! I’m Anexis and my pronouns are they/them. Nice to meet you! I’m a blind college student majoring in english with a concentration in creative writing. I’m a content creator who began on YouTube with the channel Videl Blind-The Blind Reader. I now currently run the channel Anexis Matos and no longer post on my old one. I started blogging to share my writing. I’ve always enjoyed stories. I started writing when I was between the ages of 10 and 12. My stories started out as Dragon Ball fanfiction which will never see the light of day because I deleted them. Now, I write original stories that I hope to share at some point. My aim with this blog is simply to share my thoughts on whatever interests me. From reviews to blindness, you’ll see it here.

Naked

My bathroom has a mirror

that I stand in front of

every day.

We’re about the same height,

but it’s part of a cabinet,

so it sits

a few inches

from my face.

I used to pretend

I could see myself in mirrors.

When I put on makeup,

I told people

I was looking at myself.

I don’t pretend anymore,

but what would I see

if I could?

Would I pay attention

to a specific part of my face?

To what I think

are too large breasts?

The one part of my body

I don’t like?

Would it be

to the parts I don’t care about?

My armpits and vagina,

always covered in hair?

The legs

I refuse to shave

because it feels strange?

Or perhaps I’ll see nothing.

What is there to see,

besides the obvious?

Nothing too interesting.

Nothing new.

Just the usual.
