Jane is my conscience That part of my head the schools tried to tell me belonged to Amerikan virtue - the Christian ethic - do unto others - Capitalism - steal, murder, destroy - My body housing all that shit from 23 years wants to know about this woman who's lurking in my head. I know she exists. I saw her pictures on the post office wall Conspirator, wanted by the FBI Jane a little younger than me can be considered extremely dangerous. She is the image of yourself. (Wide awake - staring blindly - she looks like she just woke up) She is the woman-woman within you. Everytime I see my sister I am put up against a wall Because she is still questioning where I am afraid. Her fingerprints: Amerikan female criminal deviant, who couldn't ignore this society with its hype of goodness - Amerikan justice She said no to all lies of what she was not supposed to think, and not supposed to be. She is not me, but are we not one of the same? Woman, trying to define me is impossible first you would have to feel secure in your body. Would I like to live alone, to see myself, and hear myself in relation to thinks that only I remind myself of? Is she a center core whose vibrancy stands alone? Sisterhood is agonizing to me (The screams of hysteria) Why at 23 do I have to wonder what I sound like alone? [hand drawing of woman's face] a Woman? October 30, 1970 7
