So many of them...


I am beyond static
I am above same
I am not stagnant waters or immobile

I am forever
changing
flowing
evolving
creating
myself, fixing and primping, and adapting

I am nerd
I am emo
I am goth
I am freak
I am the bondaged slave
I am the escaped Hebrew
I am the fighter
I am the brown skin girl who listens to "white music"
I am every label
on every bottle in your finite and infinite mind

I am seen yet likened to the invisible man
I am nowhere and everywhere
"to be or not to be":
Normal? Never! And I repeat hell no, never!

I am never-ending yet my end is nearing
I am not status quo
I am me
I am different

I know who and what I am
So who and what are you?
Do you know?
Learn your I.D.
Before you memorize mine.

The author's comments:
I was tired of people trying to add labels to everyone and they don't even know themselves that well. So here was my message, I know exactly who I am so figure out your identity.
