Not a Mimic Nor a Mime
i'm not a parrot
but don't forget
to feed me each
time i repeat one
line
not like the actions
of Jackson's taken
away at the funeral
bird so i've heard
i often find myself
saying over and
once again over
the phrase that
holds me
even controls me
to write these words
as weird as that may
sound
but i of sound
body and mind
not needing
winding
not even in any
speak find i'm
repeating what
i was told but
know that what
i say is truth and
not from my lips
a slip or calming
mantra
i really do not
repeat but
speak the
truth that
I LOVE YOU
