Here I am
December 25, 2011
A bunch of words. Words not spoken.
A bunch of pictures. Pictures not taken.
Here I am
Becoming old. Becoming broken.
Some torn up shirts. Shirts never worn.
Some bad pair of jeans. Jeans not had.
Here I am
Becoming slow. Becoming duller.
Left over memories. Memories never remembered.
Left over ideas. Ideas not thought of.
Here I am
Becoming blamed. Becoming shamed.
A bunch of this. A bunch of that.
Some of that. Some of this.
Left over this. Left over that.
Here I am
Becoming whatever happens next.
