Where are you from?

The dreaded question

The pause

The mad brain scramble 
to ascertain

if they really want to know...

The long answer is:

Nowhere.

Born in the USA

Raised in a remote village

Is that enough?

Is that what you want?

How weird do you think I am?

4 countries

I am blessed.

But......which land is my land?
