Where Do I Come From?
“Where do I come from?”
I come from a mix.
A mix of realandfake. A mix of blackandwhite.
I come from a lot of places
In the world.
I come from gold and
paper
Like a trophy case and
school.
I come from theinsandouts.
I come from theupsanddowns.
I come from theleft andtheright.
I come from every corner.
Everywhere like a
camera.
you can’t stop seeing a camera
That one camera is
Saying “I can’t be
forgotten.”
But, it takes one person
To know where they can be notice.
I come from outside,
Where any rain drop finds
It’s way in before it can be dry up.
It’s a date at 7 p.m.
And, then, your
date saw
Someone else at 7:30 p.m.
But, you said to yourself “Where did it come from?”
I come from an emotional feeling.
Happy,
angry,
sad,
confuse,
and weirdness.
I come from all of the above.
I come from a planet that ejected me.
A planet wants me
To be joyous on earth.
They said “Pluto is too small
and no good.”
I come from a universe that says “Be whoever you want.”
