I believe that lovers should be draped in flowers/ And laid entwined together in a bed of clover/ Left there to sleep/ Left there to dream of happiness.

I was raised Catholic, and I have an aversion to anyone who takes religion to the extreme.
I didn't used to think about politics much, or social issues. I was a teenager, writing about girls.
