No simple man of letters
Spirit of the words
Lingering years
Son of Earth
Smoke filling lungs
Spirit of the world
No simple man of letters
Let the pages fox and curl
Dog ear the history
Let it fade
Destroy the concept
Lost in the grey
Tag Archives: Memory
Another day to dust
Settling on the past
Tome on the shelf, pushed to the back
Forgotten passages
Pathways of the mind
Undisturbed
The antiquarian archive
Not for glory, not for adulation
Just to make sense of myself
Endless dissertations
Volumes shelf upon shelf
Telling obvious truths, thinly veiled secrets
Exploring strength and knowing weakness
Keeping moments
Ink to page, or forget
Thought stains
Keep the memories fresh
Through fields of mirrored glass
Into the forest looking back
Into fractional space
Glimpse disjointed memories
Slivers of light in the dark
Needle points
Leading in to the heart
Subconscious
Find me in the small hours
Head held in my hands
Waking from a strange place
Strange dreams
I cannot understand
Stirred from bed, I rise before the Sun
Memory grows thin
As I forget what it was
