I Cling to Whatever Identity I Have

I cling to whatever identity I have,
but I have none,
or I have many.
In the end,
I only have one--
I am human.
I am defined more
by what I am not:
rich, powerful,
a greedy hoarder
of wealth and
power.
In other words,
I am not
a monster.
Fine.
I would rather
be just another
victim, and take
my chances
with every other
sister
and brother.
