I didn't choose this.
Never liked any of it.
Lil messed up in the head if ya think I prayed it happen when it did.
'Cos I didn't..
I'd never..
But I ain't sorry 'bout it.
See 'er there? Sittin' on a veranda wit' em' books and nothin' else.
Readin'
At'em all she do a day.
Read...
We more alike than ya think but we aint a same.
Twins y'all call it.
Look a same, walk n talk a same y'all wanna see we be dressin a same dolled up pup.
But we don't like that
I don't like that.
Never did
Never will
People be comparin' us like em broken goods up for a good end price.
Is a shame n sickenin' wit' em hoggin 'er noses where it don't belong.
I ain't jaggin up my cart to bein' praisin' like she do a day wit' y'all jacked up snobs. I ain't gon' give a jack n fickle if we disappoint y'all by bein' our own person.
But she went gon and done it.
Old sis by a straight couple a minutes thinkin she can do 'er trash on me.
Dressin like me.
Talkin like me.
Like lookin at a mirror of mah self. Ain't that a shocker.
I went n told 'er quit it.
Told 'er off bout em circus she givin to em of us cos it ain't nice nd it ain't funny.
She stopped bout a mile way but didn't change a fact bout a face.
We was wit' a same face.
I hated mah face.
Same as 'ers a bout it.
People huggled up n 'usher they bein proud it we twins.
Sister and me fought bout it
Gotten tired of bein' a same all em times.
I done said I hate her for bein born
She yell em back at me wit' a same blow
I was mad, upset n stupid I gone told 'er if don't change 'er face... ... I will.

I was gon' pour it on me
But sister done me over, took em fried off mah hand
She at it wit er, tipped fallin over wit a fry and burnt herself.
Big ol sis saved me mah face wit no scratch
But her left face burnt and gone left blinded cos of a 'ire bout it.
I ain't sorry
But she my evrythin I can't go livin without.
'Er blind side gon be me takin care of 'er a fine a day together.
