Colorblind
The promise land is no longer a white cloud but has become a new array of color! Dr. King once said, " We as a people will get to the promise land." Martin Luther King believed that all men and women will get into there own Utopia. It will be a creation that people of this universe will make themselves. Dr. King would be proud of the fact that he accomplished the peoples goal of being able to sit next each other and use the same things etc. But he will also be dissapointed of the fact we took advantage of this.
Dr. King would feel proud of the fact that we as people have accomplished the rewriting of laws. If he went into our classroom he would be proud of all the kids sitting side by side in random order, and it didn't have to matter if you were Asian, white, black, Spanish etc. He would also feel proud that we have today an African American President. Furthermore, he would feel proud that we have advanced into a world where the people truly have the power. We have also advanced into a world where we can stretch our boundaries and explore different aspects of the world and life to chose our own path.
Sadly, for the most part i believe Dr.King would feel dissapointed with our society today. Now a days you hear two of the same races fighting just because someone looked at another. He would be greatly dissapointed with all the "freedom of speech" music we have today and hearing the younger generations vocabulary. Also the effort being put forth for most people would make Dr.King forlorn. Back then it was a privilege to get into a school and get an education. The fact that sagging contributes to this doesn't help the situation. He also wouldn't approve the killings of Iraq i think he would have liked to fight peacefully. Lastly with the fact that kids have the choice to sit anywhere and they choose to sit with there little groups.
Personally, i feel Dr.King would feel this way because of his high elegant. He would want killing between one another because he was more of a peacemaker. According to today's music its ran by the devil. All the message he would have to find out something and feel what have we done to this world. He would greatly would frown upon sagging because of what it is, mean, and where it came from. Dr.king dresses himself with the up most dignity he wouldn't like to see another saying nice underwear color It would make him feel did he really make the right choice. Would this all be different if he didn't do what he did?

The AMAZING world of Hyperboles -_-
Hyperboles is commonly known as an exaggeration. According to to dictionary.com a hyperbole is a obvious and intentional exaggeration or an overstatement. I personally believe that a hyperbole is someone that kind of stretches the truth to an extent that makes it unbelievable. But some hyperboles became true; For example Man will never set foot on the moon. I think hyperboles are important in writing because it brings more life to a writing. It also allows the reading feel what a person is writing.

I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak,
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet
But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.
[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
And as it fell you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak,
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet
But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.
[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
When I lay with you
I could stay there
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together
Nothing is better
'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
And the games you'd play
You would always win, always win.
[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.
[Chorus:]
I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
I set fire to the rain,
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, ohhhh!
Oh noooo
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn
I could stay there
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together
Nothing is better
'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
And the games you'd play
You would always win, always win.
[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.
[Chorus:]
I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
I set fire to the rain,
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, ohhhh!
Oh noooo
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn
