Last Line: NO LONGER LOVE THE CHEERLEADER.
Subject(s): ANGER; ITALY; WISHES; ITALIANS;

Remember her cheers? How you loved the cheerleader far beyond
desperation. How you nearly threw yourself into Niagara Falls
unprotected by a rubber barrel on your high-school senior trip.
Now you have a permanent rubber barrel around you but you
no longer love the cheerleader.
