Written for those who fear their own name Why do you try to destroy me on your doubts of my creativity Your words cry out with the vengeance of a lost soul Trapped in the quagmire of uncertainty with howling wolves Who rips away at your self respect like a piece of raw flesh You stand isolated with the name Anonymous For no other name will claim you in pride Except for Diarrhea for the way you run your mouth And then hide in the bushes Waiting for people to step on your work Like the low down dog you who cowers so With its tail inside itself in the fear of laughs You claim my work worthless in ghostly script To then fade away in shame of a battle lost You are the shadow of prejudice That makes slaves of people comments To lower their self respect in the chains of other peoples eyes Seeing truth in innuendo of lies of filth My name is D.Lester, Dave or David Or what ever beautiful name you give me full of my pride I am a White Eagle flying high to swirl in your mind on its own flight I am a poet in the love of verse creating the softness to feel your insides Explode in the fireworks of each one of your names glowing And how special they are in the magic of their creation Not hiding and displaying in the winds like an American flag Yes Anonymous we have dealt with you throughout time You have taken the lives of billions for fear of standing on your own You have ruined the lives of persons of good will And stood as the foot soldier of the monsters that slaughtered and pillaged us They may even end up with their own grave marker That just says Anonymous And that is all we know Email me if you want a critique on or off line at [email protected] I write so much that I may seem to be inconsiderate of others; I do apologize for my flaws.

I wouldn't waste too much breath on the snakes below. It is too bad that there are a few jealous souls out there who prefer to spit venom, but do not have the courage to show themselves in the light. |

Hey Dave, I used to be "a nonny mouse' before I became Kethry. It's no bad place to be. Don't bother to look I didn't have the courage to post anything. I liked your rant. Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
