Matching Suit
Some one once told me the most valuable thing is a education because it,
Something that no one could every take from you,
My dad was from New Jersey and my mom is from North Carolina they hook,
Up in the 80’s when land was cheap picking vegetables and fruit and dealing with,
Hen Eggs in the field for minimum wage maybe why that is the reason I am a simply,
Man.
I reallie did not hang out much with the youth and the city that I’m from is starting to,
To become a retirement city for senior citizen just like the other two city by the way,
May be that is why I am full of stories,
I was told to start at the bottom learn as much as one position from the door man to preach,
To preach to school yard to teach down to the student with no teeth.
When came to written I was told to write a sort way and what I was learn it is was two,
Backlash against me,
That minority was under represent when came to writing and also explain by five,
Mid level companies that did not have to write back that explain my work was good they,
Didn’t know how buyers would respond to my work,
And that’s when I knew,
To continue to write.
