Where I’m From

Where I’m From

I am from airplane rides 

From accents and funny words 

I am from laughter in the kitchen 

And trying to pronounce words that I don’t understand 

I am from growing up fast 

And what is that in your lunchbox?

I am from two separate worlds split down the middle 

From distinctly American and distinctly not

I am from cousins and second cousins and third cousins 

From playing in the backyard and staying out too late 

I am from two week long vacations 

Where I see the family I belong too

I am from passports and customs forms

From a small village with a big house 

I am from a language I can not speak 

But a family I can belong to

My aunt’s cat is very shy and hides when there are guests in her house. She semi-trusts my parents and will at least be in the same room as them. Tonight, my dad made some progress:

man you know what I want? a superhero series where they have powers that 100% contradict their personalities. a fishermans daughter who lives by the sea, swims every day, learns that she can control fire. a boy who’s mortified of heights but realizes he can use antigravity and hates it. someone who was bitten by a dog as a child, suffers extreme fear around animals, can now communicate with them. they’re all disgusted by their powers.

yes good but what about the ~character development~ as they learn to cope with their powers and overcome their fears

the pyrokinetic swimmer wading out into the ocean armed with waterproof matches to practice so nothing goes wrong, building her confidence with the sea as her safety net, being so proud when she figures out how to heat the air just enough that she dries off instantly after swimming

the boy slowly overcoming his fear of heights, realizing that he can catch himself if he ever falls, standing swaying on top of playground sets and closing his eyes as he tries to safely hover down (and not fall on his face again)

the girl’s terror lessening as the previously terrifying cacophony of the dogs at the park turns into a chorus of “ball! ball! throw me the ball!” “it’s me! I’m the good boy!” and “squirrel!!!” and learning to communicate back, have them listen to her, learning how to calm down a dog who’s overexcited to the point of biting, discovering that the scary dog down the street is just home alone a lot and lonely, staring her fear in the face and learning its secrets

because being disgusted with their powers is interesting, but I want to see people learning to love even the scary and contradictory parts of themselves
