My Origin
My Origin
I am from books,
From The Little Engine that could and Leonardo da
Vinci.
I am from the rose bush,
The daffodil,
Whose flower I wasn’t supposed to pick.

I am from Ice-cream cake and Chinese dramas
From Pearl and Gao
I am from the high expectations,
And the cunning foxes.
From “be polite” and “say hello!”
I am from God is good
With a martyr on my mom’s side,
And Christian camps every summer.

I am from Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Harbin,
Snails and chicken gizzards.
From the band wagon I crashed,
The deceit of my father
And the burn,
I am from photos, Sam’s Club,
Still in their packaging
Captured memories,
Only a few cents each.
How precious these cheap things are.

Silence
Silence
I run, miles, I run
Through the loud noises
Through that dense covered forest,
Till I’ve arrived,
At the lake.

Ah, silence peace,
My true resting place
My nerves are calm,
And I smile.
“Ew. Look at your ugly face! Creepy man, get away!”
And the smile fades,
Back to the abyss it came from,.

Dip and wipe
Dip and wipe
One who always listens,
Never complains.
Or screams at my face…
Burned off in a fire,
Poor

Woeful
Me.
