i could've been you if i were your age in the current day yes, you with the hair in purposeful disarry ring in one nostril and ever so cautious look in your eyes i feel your pain not in precisely the same way you do but i've been on the edge of terror before and when all is said and done the fact remains i could've been you (believe me, baby) i know because i've been where you have been There must be a poem in here somewhere. |

We are all rebels at one point in time, even the meekest of us have rebel thoughts whether they shout it out or keep it inside. |

If we do not have real trend setters we will not have any leaders either. My brother was a leader.In junior high in 1945 he had my mom curl his hair with a curling iron. The next day most of the boys came to school with curly hair.Then he got a crew cut and you guessed it~~~ His math teacher still had his class photo on her desk when I went there three years later. He was a hard act for my youger brother and I to follow. latearrival |

I think, in the end we all wind up being just who we were meant to be and you were clearly meant to be a poet. Ida |
