Fishing With Willie

Me and Willie ain't been fishing in a while cause of all this reunion stuff and all our out of town guests. It were good to get back in the boat and drift around Harper Lake. We warn't excited about catching nothing; if something bit good enough, if something didn't that were okay too. In fact, we both landed a good number of fishes during our stay on the lake. But most important we had a chance to talk, since we ain't seen each other in a while. Back when me and Willie were school kids we had to go to different schools.
That's because me and him warn't the same color. Now-a-days that don't matter. But since we had the kind of situation we did, Willie didn't know a lot of the peoples at the reunion I went to. I warn't a class member neither but I still knew a bunch of 'em. I had a good time telling Willie about the goings on over the last week. While we was out there Willie reminded me about this fellow who used to live in Harper. His name was Legion. And just like the Bible story he were filled with demons.
