I AM NOTHING

I AM NOTHING

I am nothing

I’ve been thrown from a dark womb to a dark room

To find light with mine eyes closed and hands tied

No riches, no maroons, no silver spoon to suck upon

Only the scum from daddy’s working class thumb

I am nothing

I am just a woman, an empty vessel

Cum dumpster, spinster,

Here to titillate, tantalize but never mesmerize

No intellect, talents or opinions to vocalize

Shall I not speak?

I am nothing

I am but vermin feeding off the spawn of mother natures breast

Infecting every living organism

Till we’re bereft and there is absolutely nothing left

But the remaining ice caps we’ve yet to melt

I am nothing

For I am weak, I am hungry, I am diseased and I cannot see

And I’ll remain to be,

In this dystopia, until the truth is free

When no media, no government, no religion feed us shit

No racism, no sexism, no violence exists

And through our art we shall create a utopian bliss.

Then, I am everything.

be the person you want to be where bad things don`t exist
The ending lines pack a punch

"When no media, no government, no religion feed us shit

No racism, no sexism, no violence exists

And through our art we shall create a Utopian bliss.

Then, I am everything."
