That which I thought which was not true

Child of the city

so I thought

I knew my streets:

where to get bread,

where to choose sweets

and where to find soup.

Yet here I am

in what I thought was

My city

with unknown signs,

never tasted foods,

untraveled parks.

Its one city

and

One me,

split experiences

Need to be more complete,

need to be brought together:

learn those names,those parks, those snacks

to really know this city that

I am

part of.
