I Am Not Anne

I am not Anne
I have never claimed to be
nothing more than I am.
Usually I claim less
unless forced to confess
I willingly give up my name.
Only once was I insane
but if you ask my brothers
they will say I never got off the train.
They who are farmers, adulterers, and thieves
they deem themselves qualified to
pass judgement upon me.
The evil among us who think
two C’s an hour is fair
have little balls and thinning hair.
Use extreme caution entering their lair
glass walled with ego stained halls
they make decisions to keep themselves
alive.
You want to tarnish my pride
soil me with your shit
have me live in your desecrated pit
Until I believe your lies
Until I give my own life
To keep you alive.
I am not Anne.

    I’ve been this way before, different time and different place, alone, outside and lonely, amongst so many friends, searching for a newness amongst the same old thing. Was first as a child not past the first grade, my heart was hollowed out from the core as with a clade, and left to dry – I…

    She was petite, I thought she was skinny; She was beautiful, At least she was to me; She loved to cuddle, Get as close as could be; She was so soft, Smooth as satin sheets. She had the ferocity of a big cat, She had a soul of pure gold, Why my baby Skinny left…
