Sometimes I feel like
Alexander Hamilton
Fixed upon writing so no one forgets me
Burying pieces of myself for someone else to see
Sometimes I feel like
Marie Antoinette
Sent to Versailles where I don't belong
Punished for finishing somebody's song
Sometimes I feel like
Susan B Anthony
Caught up in so many never ending fights
Stubborn in my refusal to give up my rights.
Sometimes I forget the present is repetition
Of the past
But then I just look at my reflection
