And poetry from the heart, of course.

Such chutzpah and moxie and all the awesome.

When it got to the Hairspray and Rent part …

“how the life comes and goes and what the people say”.

When I was Sophie’s age I was coming to grips with the apparent lawlessness of words – their anarchy.

Shoo Flies really makes this happen. They are a gutsy and honest and vulnerable group.

“And words in the shows can be risky”.

The last two verses/stanzas.

They remind that WORDS HURT. And you respect that hurt and try to mitigate/prevent it.
