saw this in magic
fitted new memory old.
heard a story told by a man today
reminded me of a story i once wrote
his story was of randomness love perseverance
pain is stronger than hate
mine was about outsider states
and nigger john ware.
black (in) rodeo.

		<description><![CDATA[I wasn't given the opportunity to fall in love with poetry. I didn't chance upon it, discover words that stirred my emotions in new ways. I didn't stumble upon poems, take them into my life as lovers, didn't get to experience the romance of poetry. It wasn't that I had any aversion to poetry, I just didn't get to experience it as new. ]]></description>

You make me smile like the sun
You gotta be able to smile through all this bullshit.
So I&#8217;m gonna smile
Cause I wanna make you happy.

Put a smile on my face
Crazy on a Sunday night
You&#8217;ll see the sun come shining through for you.
Just smile for me [...]]]></description>
