summer
all of this season, for me, has its sum in the smell of central air conditioning and cut lemons, the Price-is-Right theme song and garden tomatoes for lunch. Bleached linens on clothesline. Leafy Maples. Bologna with mustard.

a prologue to regrets; trumped

when loud house
is quiet
and I can think,
reflecting past
off bleach-clean walls,
will I ache at corners
left vacant,
spaces gone,
devoid of occupation?
will you sit
in joyful places
recalling, replaying
pale memories

I am taking a break from the "Amnesia" series.
Its interpretive symbolism and loose associations to a once-felt reality will no doubt hastily find their way back into print in one form or another. This being due to the fact that someOne has swapped what should be a normal set of......Read More
