I wonder if I had lived somewhere
other than Rochester.
(Minneapolis?)
What would I be?
I can not help but
keep longing for that air
OH! all the air that's there!
I'm old.
And the ******* millennials are
pouring over and I am just
stuck.
Who will I be?
after all this fire
surrenders to dusk?
But the silent air screams
LOUDEST
in my ears.
However I can't fight back
for Life's too powerful
and I am left with water
so much black water
that can not be drained.
It was the most important decision
in my life and for all those around me.
I swear my feet land by my decision
but I can not help but wonder
what would I be?
if I had lived somewhere
other than Rochester?

I write in my father's point of view about his long ago decision to live here.
Minneapolis and Rochester were the two place my father had the option to move to to begin his work. He had chosen Rochester. Now that the workplace there is now closing, I try and make him wonder how life would be if he had chosen Minneapolis. Minneapolis would be where we may have to move.
