Notes About The Poem

for those who try to end the existence of others,for no reason other than they can.

The Other One

"THE OTHER ONE"
You tried to demolish me
...I stood strong with
powerful arms and hips
I am the Beauty who cared nothing
about beauty, never played on it. 
If you fall for the cover that is on you; 
I am that book that needs to be read
Through and through.

I am not the one..
Never have been,even back then,
When women were told what to do.
I can only be ruled only by justice truth.

And I will fight courageously 
I am Known for Bravery;
You tried to demolish me in 1960
Steadfast I stood with
Powerful hips and arms.

Strong constitution,
Easy going, sweet
Until you anger the (eye)
You'll quickly find the other side:
Another me. 

Inside the Pit of my peach 
is (Arsenic) "The sweetness 
and meekness turned inside out 
You will soon see, 
I am not the one.
 
You cannot push anything
down my throat...and gloat.
Not without a chance of losing it!
You may not value your life,
but I value my own.

Yes, I will end your pitiful existence as
I climb back up on my throne.
I do not compromise,
Don't try me on for size
I fight ferociously;
Because you don't fight fair
I'll Put a death grip on your hair. 

Then I'll pull your jacket
Over your head, 
kick your behind so bad
“Make you wish you were dead”

I am not “The One” ....
I am... most graciously 
"the other one”
Or you can call me 
“the next one” 

If by chance you get me
They’ll always be, another-
ONE to follow 
Who like me 
won't wallow or swallow.
 
Tomorrow there will be 
Another one – 
The other One and
 “THE NEXT ONE”.
