I find myself in an abandoned school. It's in a shady neighborhood off broadway in St. Louis city. The front doors are mostly boarded and have signs warning trespassers. We weren't the first to break into the school and we weren't the last. Window glass littered the floor of the closed elementary school. To walk through something that once influenced many lives and oto see it in such a state, was impossible to describe. How many of those children are no longer living? How many are doctors? How many are married? How many are sick? Who is famous? Who is living lives they never dreamed, good or bad? Young minds once learned in this building that is now in ruins. The gym was spray painted with graffiti. The office door was broken in half. The carpet was ripped up. There were birds in the ceiling. It was the most dirty place I have ever found myself.
