This Week’s Independent Thinker

173

I’m begging for footnotes in the story of your life. She wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts. I might be okay but I’m not fine at all. You kept me like a secret, I kept you like an oath. Break up, break free, break through, break down, you would break your back to make me break a smile. We are never, ever, getting back together.

Snippets from Taylor Swift songs – she’s a country, indie folk, pop singer and a storyteller known for earnest lyrics as deep as the Roubidoux Aquifer. She makes switching genres as easy as changing lanes. She’s won 14 Grammy Awards with her lyrics that lurch and comfort. She was named after James Taylor. Her voice is intimate and soaring.

Her Eras Tour, a retrospective of Taylor Swift’s albums, was performed 149 times in 51 cities on five continents, earned more than $2 billion.

Her talent, diplomacy and philanthropy keep her tall, thin frame grounded.

Artist. Businesswoman. Writer. Giver. “Fearless” occupations.

She has it going on.
