unanimous

by Angela Thomas

i just read another girl's poem about being forgettable
and i'm sick and tired of being unforgettable. of having
every man i meet tell me how special i am. how different
i am from other women. how i walk to my own beat

and make my name seem unique. i've spent enough
time with myself to not need some lame finance guy
in his lands end sweater, pushing paper, and managing
numbers to tell me that i'm out of the ordinary for him.

fuck yeah i am. i've been special my whole life, and not
your-mom-calling-you-that-on-the-first-day-of-school
special, the kind of special that you'll meet one time and never
forget. the kind of special that is rarely understood, but always

desired. i'm un-fucking-forgettable. and i want to take a break
from this life. i want to pause, disappear. i want to be forgotten.
