Memories of a sad and lonely life reminding me of my freshman english teacher.
I covered myself under the umbrella of other peoples sadness,
I stood in the shadows of other peoples fears,
I lived in the house of other peoples dreams,
I dressed in the clothes made by the hands of the poor,
I followed the laws written by the foolish,
I lived the life of a thousand angry souls,
I was buried in the soil of a thousand ruined crops.
