Here is my first ever entry to Bradley Ramsey power up prompt. This poem is about identity, the emotion I chose is existential dread, and the song pairing is It’s the End of the World as We Know it

Enjoy 😌

Identity is a Scam by Happy Nielsen

Identity is a scam

Being a mom isn’t you

Being a husband isn’t you

Being a writer isn’t you

Being straight isn’t you

Being male isn’t you

Being white isn’t you

Being Gryffindor isn’t you

Being Catholic isn’t you

Being INTJ isn’t you

Being 30 isn’t you

Being American isn’t you

Being friendly isn’t you

Being sarcastic

Being honest

Being silly

Being mean

Being funny

Being happy

Being

Being

Being

Isn’t you

Isn’t you

Isn’t you

Isn’t you

Identity is a scam

Because

You aren’t a person at all
