ageless moments and memories
dangle in the mind's atmosphere
like ornaments hanging from a tree,
misery loves company they say
but only on the weekends...
doubt suppresses guilt when
questions aren't answered
and life begins a middle age
is just a foolish rumor...
single parents dine on facebook
hoping for a new experience,
showing off body parts as if
skin is the main attraction once
the pills have been swallowed.
hapless hobos walk the tracks
looking for their next meal,
avoiding family responsibilities
by giving away their fortunes;
photos from the earlier days
turn yellow in back pockets
crinkle in wallets - seldom
looked at anyway - reminding
reminding us of times when
was just a finger click away.
