the dusty passage
next to the washing machine
bustling between four and five pm
when the addicts converge
lift a tin pop a lid
fill their bowls
and wander off
to get a buttery high
never embarrassed
to leave evidence
of their addiction
yellowed crockery
salt spray on the counter
greasy napkin gleaming chin
there are some things
where I lack guilt
in being guilty
