I Know

I'm not a drama queen
a barbie doll
someone's else spleen.

I know I'm not a sex pistol
or soda can
or avatar.

I know I'm not filthy
or rabid
or mean

But I've been so much
milled as a machine

that I gotta lot more findin' out what
I'm not
so's i can get onto what
I AM.

it does not matter what you're not because inner beauty is what you've got.

Use a map not a machete but you'll still find that you are a good person. Tony
