My body represents the coming together of a billion individual decisions , the collision of trillions of happenstance acts ,without any one I would not be me. I would not be here. For better or for worse I am the culmination of my line . From boat builders and sailors, tavern keepers and brewery workers , from pioneers , hunters and gatherers and no doubt philanderers , solders , and murderers, men of the gods and men of the dark, women forgotten by patriarchal poetic demands . The path to me will have been no fairy tale, fitting as I am no prince charming . An R rated story with deliciously necessary X rated interludes. It is a pepeha that stretches the length of the earth , uniting peoples who deviated hundreds of years ago, thousands of years ago, millions of years ago and all have found union genetically in me. I am the end of the line, stood on the edge of the world , gazing towards the end of time.
