I Have A Name! Poem by Eric Cockrell
I Have A Name!
roll back the stone!
take your chains
of ignorance and fear
from around my neck....
take your shackles
from my feet....
nobody owns me,
and nobody ever will.
i am not a number...
i have a name!
Heck even livestock on a pasture generally have nicknames, if not ones in common use. Institutions are determined to take even that from us. Great writing.
