Poem: Black Holes and Rainbows

Black Holes and Rainbows

Words by Steven Joseph McCrystal

Empty inside, I need to fill a hole - so I shovel in my dirt to find a little goal
Routine, routine, joy, routine, routine, joy
As I toil amongst the drudgery I find a vibrant colored light
It fills my heart with pleasure and I’m starved of scornful spite

And as my heartbeat beats with yesterday’s fashions
I find that today I’m wearing one of its dullest detachments
I often dream a dream of becoming more than I am
I often dream a dream of following a much grander plan

But at the risk of being reckless and abandoning my hole
I find myself tormented by my golden dreams of old
But as I tip toe towards them getting close and closer still
My heart starts pounding when it’s tickled with the thrill

The thrill of being someone chasing a rainbow colored soul
The thrill of being someone who’s getting closer to their goal

How to Setup Solar

Step 1. Create a Homepage

Even if you already have a home page, you'll need to create a new one since Solar needs a blank page to automatically pull and display your blog posts in the magazine layout. You can create a new homepage by going to "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Standard" page.

Step 2. Apply "solar" Page Layout

Once you create a new homepage, apply the "solar" page layout to the new homepage. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, select the homepage on the left, and under "HEADER TYPE", select "solar".

Step 3. Create A Blog

If your site doesn't have a Weebly "Blog" page, then create a new "Blog" page. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Blog Page".

Step 4. Setup Blog Automation

Come back to this screen and fill in the input boxes with the URL of your "Blog" page and 3 category URLs from that blog.
