who are you
I am America.
English. Cherokee.
Irish. And Polynesian.
Look at my hands
Travel the deep scars
As far back as they will take you.
Listen to my heart
That beats half-dead
Inside my body.
Look at my eyes. Deep into the Darkness
Of my soul. And you will know
Who I am.

I love to look at hands, they really do tell a story. Very poignant, and beautifully human, this piece.
Happy new beginning to you and your family. I wish you peace love and all manner of good fortune.
I think Lori has said what I would like to have thought of. Wishing you all the best in this new year!
