New Hampshire (i/njuːˈhæmpʃər/) is a state in the New England region of the northeastern United States of America. The state was named after the southern English county of Hampshire. It is bordered by Massachusetts to the south, Vermont to the west, Maine and the Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Canadian province of Quebec to the north. New Hampshire is the 5th least extensive and the 9th least populous of the 50 United States.
It became the first post-colonial sovereign nation in the Americas when it broke off from Great Britain in January 1776, and six months later was one of the original thirteen states that founded the United States of America. In June 1788, it became the ninth state to ratify the United States Constitution, bringing that document into effect. New Hampshire was the first U.S. state to have its own state constitution.
It is known internationally for the New Hampshire primary, the first primary in the U.S. presidential election cycle. Concord is the state capital, while Manchester is the largest city in the state. It has no general sales tax, nor is personal income (other than interest and dividends) taxed at either the state or local level.

Consumption of Love
Destruction of Home
you broke their legs before they could walk
you broke them down
you broke them
drunkard married to addiction
your scars break
the barriers of death
and touch the generations
after you
you breed death and dishonor
I never knew you
i knew the man you killed
a broken man in
the midts of his life
robbed of all his happiness
scars from the past
deepen with no repair
although his was taken in youth
my father still gave me the world
in the likeness of Christ
