Mallory's Shadow Poem

I am from the Bowl of Mountains by the Inlet.
From Cold snowy winters.
I am from the Chicken Nuggets with Mac and Cheese
and Pepsi with Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups.

I am from Epic Baseball games in the Backyard
with many Cousins, Aunts, and Uncles,
and German Shepherd pets.
I am from Forts of Chairs and cloth sheets,
From giant indoor playgrounds.

I am from Road Trips, north and south,
In Red Suburbans.
I am from Dispatchers and a security Guard
that is only half there.
From "Kilamik!"s and "Oova."s
I am from Music of Guitars, Vocals, and Drums.
