I Am From

I am From

By Kevin Timothy

I am from a smooth bunk bed,

A dark crawl space,

Little green army men,

And a small glaring light

I am from a bright yellow dump truck,

An unfinished pool,

An echoing tree house,

And fake dinosaur bones

I am from the soothing melodies of John Mayer,

The rebellious Lynrd Skynrd,

Motivational U2,

And always-wonderful Blink-182

I am from tedious hockey practices,

Two magnificent hole in ones,

A seven-goal soccer game,

And a DSBN gold medalist

I am from social media,

A silver laptop,

A shiny touch screen phone,

And an intricate camera

I am from the bright green forest of Algonquin,

The gold beaches of Florida,

The beautiful Cape Cod,

And Jamaica’s tropical terrain

I am from a loving family,

A big lazy dog,

A psychotic brother,

And a quite old house

I am from a desolate island,

Infected with children,

In search of democracy,

And savage like behavior

I am from war,

A fascination with the supernatural,

A very loving wife,

And an overwhelming lust for power

I am from high school,

Crazy about a particular girl,

Have a strange ability to climb anything,

And wear a blue and red suit

I am from a loving father,

Determined to solve a mystery,

Fascinated with simple situations,

And always carrying a Swiss army knife

I am from a group of  “crazy” men,

A woman who hates me,

An amazing fishing trip with the men,

And have a great ability to lead

I am from a murder mystery,

Sentenced for jail time,

Strangely falling for an unlikely partner,

And working with a woman with many tattoos and piercings

I am from Florida,

Have an ability to go to bed easily with women,

Frequently become overly intoxicated,

And have a criminal record
