12/ema/exile in the outer ring
Jesus wept,
When she told you the truth,
Of secrets kept.
Of secrets kept.
It's just something that
The outer ring people do.
The outer ring people do.
Out in the ether,
And into the great beyond.
And in awe we remain, with each listen and return.
This place out in exile
(where she tells you the truth).
Erika. M. Anderson,
EMA.
Exiled in the Outer Ring.
A personal exile where she has the space to just be.
Where she can reflect on the stories of famous men she can't see herself in.
But steal from them?
She will do.
She too will be ferocious.
(it's just what the outer ring people do)
She too, will stand tall and walk in her artistry;
Be expressive, attack, and destroy.
35, Nihilistic, and Female,
Riding atop stark, menacing soundscapes;
Digging deep into the raw, atmospheric noise and inner reaches of her mind,
Til there's nothing left but blood and chalk.
Exiled in the outer ring,
Knee deep in the sludge.
Alive in the loud,
And present in the soft.
As she tells us these truths of secrets kept,
Exiled in the outer ring.
(It's just something we outer ring folks do.)
