I like the September 11th interpretation (and it does fit, the stairwells and corridors and stuff), but I actually wrote this poem long before that - according to Word, February 2001. This highlights an important fact about literature - while it is perfectly acceptable to read your own experience into a poem, this can never be taken as representative of the author's intention. I'm afraid Jeremi, you've committed the intentionalist fallacy. Maybe I just had some kind of freaky premonition.
