the city has resided within me / and they ask me of the streets i have lived in / so i pack two memoirs and a name in my bag / and i tell them that my art holds it all / that the urban trauma of my days still lingers / but my ache has turned to gold / so no matter where i go / this city will never escape my soul ~
