From Where I Am

I am from the '90s,
from Saturday cartoons to jean jackets.
I am from a generation of rebels.
(I blame the violence the video games.)
I am from the balance of inside
and outside, lengthy hours of playing
kickball turned into Super Smash Bros.

I'm from a galaxy far far away,
from Coruscant to Jakku.
I'm from hours of Star Wars marathons
and a massive collection of graphic novels,
from the prequels to the sequels.
I'm from enjoying more time with my uncle
than my own father
and inheriting the former's addiction.

I'm from a blend of cultures
from old Mexican ideals
to new American ones.
I'm from a family of collectors,
Lego sets to cat memorabilia.
From my aunt's and cousins' pets
to my own little fluffballs,
to what I consider my furbabies.

Cousins I grew up with and my grandmother.

I am from a new generation,
of scientists and "influencers".
I am from the golden age of the internet.
(If net neutrality maintains.)
I am from self-diagnosed ADHD,
from doing homework to
watching a YouTube video to
playing a mobile game on my phone.
(Simultaneously, of course.)

I'm from a morbid mind,
never forgetting that we only have so much time.
I'm from a time-efficient, neurotic mind.
I'm from a yin-yang style of thinking,
from engineering (presence of mind)
to powerlifting (presence of body.)
