Where are your ancestors from?

East of the Sun,
West of the Moon,
East of the Sun,
West of the Moon,
from out of the ooze in the mid-ocean trench,
from the solar-deflected cosmic rays,
soaked in blood, dusted in ash,
caked with muck from the rotting forest floor,
swept by crag-cracking arctic jet stream,
cloned by radio waves, head stove in,
lifted in an herb cloud, drenched in hops,
stained by treachery, saved by friendship,
on my last legs but still getting by…
and one of them signed the Declaration of Independence –
trusting that my kids will more than live up to their heritage,
making their home on Planit Oit, spreading their vision
up, out, deep beyond… my ancestors beat the drum,
sang as they walked and worked, listened to the
creatures and the plants under the sun,
listened to the ocean sing,
tinkered with machinery,
and in their proudest moments
passed along the ways to fight disease, hunger, ignorance…
lounging around the fire

StrongBad1988 - I’m only 3rd generation American. My great-grandparents ALL came to NY (settled in NJ) in 1912 (give or take a year) during the great Central/Eastern European immigrations to the US before WWI. Like to think I’m gypsy, but can’t prove it…

But some of my ancestors were here before the revolution. I also had family on both sides of the War of Nothern Agression(Civil War). So I’m sure that is not completely acurate.
