Biography in monosyllabic words

I was born in or from war. I have been caught up and sent on a big bus through lands and a sea, to the land of wind and ice, the blind Norns, strong light and pitch dark, the fresh fish, and too sweet bread, to a wife, three kids and a job, one night job with men mad in the head, then a nice one, with books, lots of books, sane and safe, cool rooms and good air.
