Blurred
Blurred in the sight
the fragments of light
suspended in memory,
blurring space and time!
Of a faded photograph
dreams pressed into the pages
of a book called life, tired,
worn discarded
in the corner.
Out of place.
I know this coming blur…
a book, with well-worn pages like
memories left to be revisited
In the closing hours of each day
till the end of life caught
In a new frame of existence.
I feel the shape blurring
Left in the halls collecting dust of ages!
I wonder this way & that counting
the days revisiting places
I read a thousand-year long.
A thing out of focus, time vast!
Words from stories
fragments of a life
Live in a blur
A figure in dreams and blurred photographs
burned into the pages of my mind buried
insight of fragments of light
trapped in memory
of each a different dream,
a different memory,
a different song or tragedy,
a page of history
I picked in The Thrift,
I see the figure in a blur, again.
The book of stories from the corner,
Down the hall, water ruined
out of focus imagery
From one's history
I revisit them now and again.
Etched in a photograph.
Blurred in the sight
the fragments of light
suspended in memory,
blurring space and time!
