On the day that I was born…

I am born on a Tuesday
at Trinity Hospital
Chicago, Illinois

I am born not far from the time
Michael Jackson had died in
2009, as well as when Barack
Obama became the 44th president
of the USA

I am a fun person
June child
summer
summer

I am born on a Saturday
at a hospital in Chicago, Illinois
I am born in Chicago but
the story of Chicago runs like
blood through my veins

I was born on
August 7, 2008
My grandparents said they lived
through the Chicago Fire in October
Fire everywhere
People getting killed
Water putting down fire

The birthdate of a GOAT
I’m an acquired taste, like a root beer float
First of all, born on a Monday
Gonna be great someday
Ice Spice born in my month
Yea, I’m definitely a munch
Mama Rug born on the same day
We too fly, we don’t play
January 12, 2009
The birthdate of a GOAT

11/15/08
my birthday
my beginning
people died
but
I was born
new life

The most important day of my life
though I can’t remember it
I see it, through a bright screen

Disasters will happen
so will miracles
but two lives are entering Chicago

Alexia and Elisa twin A and B
Harry Potter, a movie of the year
thank you, 6-23-09

I was born September 14, 2008

I am born on a Monday
in Trinity Hospital, Chicago, Illinois, USA
A country that’s across another country with
the wish to succeed.

I was born in a whole different
location where my parents would
walk miles in blistered feet just to go to
school.
