From a conversation about sexual assault in the US:
No, pues yo no voy ni a poder ver al [redacted], ahora – ahora ni a mi madre así verla a la cara porque – pues van a decir que qué poca puta madre.
Y pues la otra también.
Ay Dios mío.
Puta madre.
Hasta la puta boca se me está queriendo enchuecar.
En serio siento aquí así –

I believe the person saying it might have faced some sort of physical altercation that left him with facial injuries. I believe this to be implied in one of the sentences before "ahora ni a mi madre así verla a la cara porque-" [I can't even see my mom like this to her face because]. I didn't get the feeling that this was an idiom of some sort with a hidden or double meaning.

Note from asker:
| Strange saying??? What is he actually trying to convey? |
| Something like: Everything is messed up (even my own mouth)? |
