You Don't Know Me

You don't know me at all. You don't know the first thing about me. You don't know where I'm writing this from. You don't know what I look like. You have no power over me at all."

You don't know John. You don't know who Glory Hallelujah or Violent Hayes are. You don't know who the Lashasa Palulu are. You don't know about the man who is not his father. You don't know John.

John is a high schooler. Beaten by the man who is not his father. Living in the home that is not a home. Going to anti-school. Playing his frog pretending to be a tuba. John knows who he is. But do you know who he is?

Of course you don't. How could you?
