Persona Non Gratis Poem by Valerie Dohren

Persona Non Gratis

Persona Non Gratis

You stepped across my boundary
And took what wasn't yours
I never said I wanted you
You still looked for applause

There's a rose in every garden
A thorn on every stem
I tried so hard to cut you down
You clung onto my hem

So then I tried to shake you free
Release you from my space
I don't want you to hang around
Now get out of my face!
