Playlists: songs about anonymity

March 28, 2018 Peter Kimpton
 That's not us.

That's not us.


By Anonymous


We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect Us.

You post. We watch.
You nominate. We listen.
You play. We wait.

You make your lists. We make Ours.

We emerge. You question.
We disappear. You wonder.
We remain. You forget.

You make your lists. We make Ours.

We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect Us.
 

 Nor are they.

Nor are they.
