i-dentity

I know I am a part of this evolving
Eternal cosmos
I am a spark of white
One of the billions that shape it
But the sparks that really have an impact
Are those which are self-conscious
Of a deterministic identity
And that is what I lack
I feel it somewhere deep down inside of me
But is too little
The blue eyed Scotsmen that I am descended from
Maybe Irishmen, who knows?
I am of this land
Yet I feel apart
A stranger, a foreigner in my own land
A beautiful land with beautiful people
People who I wish to call my own
But cannot relate to
I wish to be with my tribe
With my people
With my brothers
And fight alongside them in this hour of need
Who knows, what the future holds
And where this constantly evolving cosmos takes us
But I'd like to remind you o' my noble brothers
Remember who you are descended from
And fight to make their memory
Their deeds, their blood, their actions
Eternally enshrined in the evolving cosmos
Remember, your identity
The identity I can only savour the tiniest fragrance of
