Integrity, I have searched for you
within bricks and mortar
heavy doors
prominent displays
slick, sure voices
but elusive you remained.
Through twisted stories
and goofy grins
haughty stances
and subtle sins
I referred to you
again and again
and said “this is wrong.”
Did you hear me,
inspiring sister?
Did you smile to yourself
while I stretched forward
chin on knuckle
with a sure set brow
demonstrating that I believe
you to be the leader of me?
