When Reagan was president?

It depends. Here, it gives the poem a breathless kind of rhythm. I just read it aloud a couple of times. At first it felt a bit chunky, then hard and fast; it built up speed. In other words, it worked.

"Cut the good fabric," is going to be forever used as a motivational phrase by me. Got some stuff to make. With fabric and life.

Asking "where is our humanity is a good question," but what we need now is concrete action. Could you point us in the right direction? Where is this school and what is the news source? Some organizations might help point the way:
