This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I submit, for your consideration, 'I will always love you' by Dolly Parton, as one example; the many works of Emily Dickinson; and probably a non-zero number of works attributed to men (Such as the Brönte Sisters) since women have not been socially allowed to benefit from the arts until reletively recently.

Edit: see below comment, updated with Dolly.

At Last was written by two men and originally performed by a man.

You got me. Fortunately, I don't need to look very hard to find a replacement.
