Food Thoughts
Cornbread crumbs trail out
Of my mouth and
Onto the floor
Beside me
I rub my feet together
To clean them off
My eyes stopping only at
Pictures of tall
Structures
Mama had told me about them
How generations ago
Our family had lived
Among them
Worked inside them
I draw the tall houses inside
My tunnel walls
Adding to the mural of
My utopia
