Where I'm From
I am from individuality,
from “be who you want to be”
and crafts that are always home-made
I am from the non-judgmental,
yet critical, the accepting once well-known
from different standpoints that come together
in a cluttered home of knick-knacks
I am from Kinkade prints and dolls
fake flowers and a crowded curio cabinet
from decorations for memories
I am from apple dumplings
and warm vanilla pudding
from goods made from scratch
kept within the family, a box of recipes
I am from readers, writers and artists
graffiti, poetry and free-style
from horror, mysteries and thrillers
yellowed pages of passed down material
and crafts that are always home-made
I am from the non-judgmental,
