Alabama, you’ve got some bad memories for me.
Not because I’ve been there, because I haven’t,
Because where he’s from, he lived there with you, you see.
He brings me joy and pain and love and hate,
And you remind me of him, and it’s nothing against you, really,
I try not to discriminate, but it’s really hard,
When this boy really broke my heart.
So, I'm doing a challenge, in spirit of 4th of July. Everyday, starting now, I'm going to write a poem about each and every state in our great Nation.
It sounds fun, and I'm already having a blast writing it.
I suggest, no, I insist you guys try it! It can be about anything, just as long as you mention the state somewhere in the poem.
I'm doing it in alphabetical order.
