HAMILTON

Alexander Hamilton, my name is -

And here I try to place my name, manipulating the syllabus till they fit- my name is ro-o-o-sie j-ones and there's a million things I haven't done 

My name never sounds right. But still I try to mould my story into his because 

His story is so brave. He was so great. He was incredible. And these words, written by someone millennia after his death they are so 

Brave so

Great

And when I sing them for a second 

I feel that power 

Strength 

That drive

In me. And so. I fit my ill sounding name into a song 

About a man who died before my great grandparents were born

About a man who started a new country 

Who died too soon

I fit my name over his and dream unrealised dreams of

Bravery and

Greatness 

Power and

Strength 

My name is 

Rosie Jones and there's

A million things 

I haven't done
