Me
I am of
stardust and song lyrics
the things that make up me and the universe.
I am descended from
the rulers, the ancestors. The makers and creators.
I am
red stinging hands
dirty paintbrushes
graphite-stained fingertips
fresh clean notebook pages.
I am scream-singing and feet-tap-tapping along to music.
Pencil scritch-scratch-scribbling in the margins.
I am a part of the world that’s part of me that’s part of the world.
Together we are everything.
