My Name

June 18th 2007 00:42
My Name Question Mark

I have been branded a letter,
sometimes followed by a minus or a plus;
I have seen myself the reflection of a short stocky man
and of a woman who willingly believes
I'd graced every backseat of fast cars;

I was the temperamental bully, using force with every demand;
a vivacious figure with shocking things to say and do
- all clapped their mouths with their proper hands;

I have been called a foul-mouthed bitch by backstabbing tratiors,
been told to go home to my barbecued dogs
and leave the fish and chips behind to the true blue Skips;

I have seen myself as a man and horse,
shooting stars across the sky with my bow and arrow,
basing my identity on books, cards, palms, numbers...

I have been many things
but I've never been my name.


-Aimzster.
