they said
‘don’t make mistakes;

do what we say,
we have your best
interests at heart’

(liars, the lot)

a girl with a camera
is the same as a
girl with a gun

(except the
girl with the
gun only has
one shot
to
get
it
right)

but i've got neither gun
nor camera

just my words &
i can re-re-re-
try as much as i want

(i’ll make all the
mistakes i want)

( & i don’t have
to worry about
running out of
film/batteries/
memoryspace
or life )

& they said
i couldn’t
fly

(well, i can’t
but i’ve got the
wings anyway)
