I AM FROMBy: Luke Ogburn

I am from books

From Rubiks and Samsung

I am from the house that is at the end of the cul-de-sac and tall

I am from the oranges and the strawberries and fruits

I’m from the Thanksgiving gatherings and my many cousins

From Hannah and Carolines and Jonathan

I’m from the forgetfulness and optism

From Santa catching fire

And peter pan running into big ben

And from Christianity and respect

I’m from South Carolina

Orange Fluff and Carrot Caserole

From the re-re-re-renaming of my dog

And most importantly, I am from

Reading, puzzles, math, and languages
