I am from horns and sirens in city streets.
I am from Tyreed and Ty-rude stealing my toys,
And from the police at the neighbors
I am from walking past the jail on the way to the park,
From playing in an old basement.
I am from playing with plastic food in an old fridge.
I am from dancing around to the show high five,
From screaming HI UBYDUBBY!
I am from being called Peepers,
And Rutabaga.
I am from playing in my grandmother’s barn.
I am from the smell of gas.
I am from moving out of the city to Penn Manor.
