seven stories of trust
with colorful murals guiding
the way up high
so high
without the drugs
smoke from my lungs
was not how I was made
sitting on the floor
wondering how it all led up to this
cold concrete
cold benches
I stand with my arms to my side
as the wind blows stronger
I look down below
through the rain
to all the people crawling
searching, smoking
conversing about race
and culture
up high I feel so
divine with the concrete
clouds and trees
signs and graffiti
stains on the floor
from events before
me
earlier today, yesterday, thirty
years ago
I can’t believe
I’ve never seen myself here
in this room
imagining drawings of deepest black
mottled green and coarse yellow
teabags on the windows
smiles in the doorways
