I wrote this poem one day after watching “Finding Nemo”. It was during the first year on my own. I had a decent job, paying rent, and going to school. I was living my life on my terms and making my own decisions. It was liberating, and watching the Disney movie reminded me of all I’d been through to get where I was.
finding me From fighting sharks to being torn apart seeking clues deep down in the big blue the search for escape to speaking whale being swallowed to the sea turtle follow bumping stinging jellyfishes to being grilled my imitating fishes through the kicking, the screaming the running, the bleeding the anticipation, the fear the thrill of being near the cries, the worry the loses, the glory the singing, the laughter the many more after Dori and Marlin found Nemo i found Juliet O.
