Anna
Anna is tired
She needs a rest
Anna is writing
In the third face
Anna’s got migraine
The worst in the world
Anna’s mind on the highway
Anna’s soul in the dirt
Anna is crazy
Anna is sad
Anna is lazy
Anna’s been bad
Anna is battered
Anna’s confused
Anna’s dreams shattered
Anna’s heart bruised
Anna is faithless
Anna’s insane
Anna is hopeless
Anna-is my name.
