Listen to poem:

Echoes Reamed Out, Cleaned, Redeemed

Time cleans out the rusty clogged drains
to forget the gritty dusty details
logged in echoes, stored for recall,
too messy, too truthful to retain.
I wonder why? 
'cause the rough stuff
lodges in dreams stored
in the gooey 
caramel centers 
of chocolate creams.
