Poetry Analysis Over Gay Rights And Equal Rights For Love

I’m writing my Poetry Analysis over gay rights and equal rights for love. I picked the song “Same Love” by Macklemore. His real name is Ben Haggery he born June 19, 1983 in Seattle, Washington. Career began in 2000 but really became popular in 2012 with release of "The Heist".
