not there again

I forgot where I was when I woke
up
this morning.

there were no bars
on the windows,

no slab of concrete under
my feet.

no guard walking the hall.
no squared

in walls.
I was home.

not there again with the warden
and her

whip and chains,
her

twisted mouth, forced into
a smile.
