WHO AM I

A verbal punch bag,

a flesh and blood object of words of hate and derision.

or a plastic mannequin,

with which people carry their lusts out on.

Still maybe I am an unfeeling robot,

controlled by human words.

WHO AM I

An animal,

somebody's cute plaything,

living for my next feeding.

Then again maybe I am a slave,

laboring in a world gone mad,

laboring to stay alive,

and not be beaten by humanity.
