Anonymity is a writer's right
Neither confess but remain out of sight
Oppress persecution before it arrives
Nurture decent in secret disguise
You may have the truth about the lies
Mine secretly what men dispise
Obscurity from wonton eyes
Undermine but not represent
Secretly love without consent
Liberate without signing on
Yield not to waiting scorn.

I get the feeling there is a message within these words...of course I'm often wrong lol Anonymity of course is a writers choice. Nicely written on the subject matter.
