Legacy

This dream

I live

created in black & white

supported by teens

then twentysomethings

Ambivalent

Intelligent

Midwestern

Suburban

No distinct future

matched by

no distinct worry

Mom and Dad

separate

Siblings

living and learning

I walk alone

play catch alone

observe alone

Prejudged by peers

Sentenced

to figure it out

to worry

to play it safe

No calling

calling me

No mentor

challenging me

I can master what I choose

I can speak my mind

I can feel

and think

I will leave

my own mysterious

legacy

I will
