and when I called

That same place that I had already called and you told me to go from your office 

and when I told you that

I had already called you told me to go in person 

one place

I had already called 

you not only did not help

You told me to go to 3 other organizations and ask them for help 

and the day we sat down

And I thought I was going to receive help you not only did not help me you double down with a story about staff members and patrons said something about me being or doing what I'm still not clear 

you had an opportunity

To help me move out of the shelter
But you didn't help 

when you as my employer

Has emergency relief funds for your employees
Which I am one of at this moment
And I was told about this fund by the housing advocate 

I could relate

Her story on many levels I myself have been raped before in my life 
And to ask for help and have a closed door in the face 

now as she was telling me this

We both fought back tears 

so she said

She feels safer sleeping outside 

she said

She got raped outside of a certain building and when she asked for help the people in the building not only did they not help her but she said they laughed 

It's not me slamming cabinets today

 It's the person above me
