from important pictures on the wall

and lots of seats like it’s a mall.

I am from double wides

with garage attached.

Always doing chores with no slack.

I am from planting rose bushes

and sometimes watering them with the hose.

I’m from family get-together ball games

and (athletic family members) basketball fans,

From Michelle,Rosa.

I’m from getting in timeout

maybe even the belt.

From I’ll give you something to cry for

and the pot can’t call the kettle black.

I’m from big-foot is real

once saw big-foot on Christmas eve. 

I’m from slang and hardwork.

Coffee and Sugar.

From my sister went after the Twin Towers  fell 

how hard it was to dwell with loneliness and sadness.
