We Are

a composite of all that came before us

collective memory of the ancients

often revealed when least expected

our ancestors blood surges

through ours and

we are the old way

combined with the new ways

still seeking answers:

Why are we here?

Upon This July 4, 2020

On this #4thofJuly2020 I remember the sacrifices of our ancestors who gave their all. Men from all ethnic backgrounds stood up against tyranny – They were Americans, equal in the fight for #Freedom And now, we must become equal in the fight against #Dictatorship #SaveOurDemocracy

We are all a composite

Of that which came before

The good, the bad,

Sadness, happiness, galore
The efforts of our ancestors

Still cling within our bones

Tis why we have no answers

Family tree stands tall

Some branches no longer exist

Shoots of new ones, little ones

Each got our gifts
From those who came
Before.
