I see things differently
I can look at a space and

crop out the extraneous matter and

reexamine the scope the way I need to see it

When you grow up in otherlands you

cannot help but see things in other ways

This must be a way of self-preservation, survival of sorts

 

I can't say survival of the fittest

because if that was the case

I would not have survived 

survival by adapting

 

learning the way to a new path.

being without a mother from the start untethers you-you have no ground to stand on or

rather the ground you stand on

is always temporary, transient.

 

You must be ready to move out quickly.
