Yesterday Man


I am

A latent sentimentalist

A closet traditionalist

My once rapier
cutting edge
has been dulled
by time

Tis the natural
erosion of age
as I tumble into
the tranquil pool
of reflection
over all things nostalgic

To dwell in the past
instead of residing
in these sad
middle age daze
where dreams
get buried
by the crushing weight
of adult reality

So here I am 

Awash in memories
thumbing through
a dusty scrapbook

Reminiscing late at night
with my relentless enemy
who stares me down impassively
with timely efficiency
