My Ethnic Autobiography

from Obviously by Bob Gaulke

/

about

We make ourselves up.

lyrics

I come from a long line
of well-intentioned people
carrying half-burnt ideas
deep into trouble

our women are tall
men too emotional
we've got tiny children
with behavioral issues

what can problems mean
over tea with family
how could you feel lost
you haven't finished your cake with us

these moments
precious to us easily lost
far from home
memories burn up our hearts

I come from a long line
of vibrant dreamers
lost in details
touching hope with fingernails

women are calm
men too emotional
in basement apartments
sitting in silence
