Someone help me out.....
October 9, 2019 at 6:21 pm
During the last hurricane, THIS YEAR, that hit NC I got stuck in my bathroom reading a magazine dedicated to the life of Anne Frank's life while she was hidden from the Nazis in Holland. During that hurricane I wrote a poem about her and I swear I posted it on this website, but forgot what thread I titled it or the poem name.
I do know I spoofed the title of the Movie Mr Holland's Opus, for the title. "Holland" is in the title of the poem, meaning where she was trapped.
PLEASE, I want to find that poem, I simply cannot find it myself. I know I submitted it here somewhere.

I tried searching 'Holland', 'Anne', 'Frank', 'Anne Frank' and your user name, no luck.
Can you recall a passage from the poem? It might help.

I tried.
As other Brian said--More detail needed.
Even a single line or phrase would be helpful.

Might have misspelled her name in the poem and left out the "e" in "Anne" and spelled "Ann"
I swear I titled it "Mr Holland's Asshole"

I bought a magazine to read, printed this year, and knowing the power would go out. I bought a magazine dedicated to her pre capture, hiding and those who surrounded her helping her.
I wrote it when the power went out, it was about how she wanted to start a ping pong table league named "Little Dipper", but realized later that she got the number of stars in the Constellation wrong, so they ended naming it "Little Dipper Minus Two".

I wrote it just being angry at how humans can be so cruel to other humans. Anne was such a happy innocent person, and simply was behaving like any teen would, and that sick fuck targeted her for no fucking good reason.
I might have named it "Little Dipper Minus Two"
It was about how she liked school, riding her bike, and wanted to start a ping pong table paddle league which she wanted to name "Little Dipper" until she found out it had 7 stars and not five. So she ended up wanting to name her ping pong table league "Little Dipper Minus Two".

Still not having any luck find your poem, Brian.
I'm sorry.
Maybe where you stashed/posted it will come to you in the middle of the night.
Good luck.

There's honestly no sign of it, Brian. Sorry.
Maybe you didn't post it at AF after all.
