Memory Artisan

memory-the artisan pasting collage to the mind a slideshow of highlights lowlights blistered frames with no lights.. lives in speed of light review a foxtrot of realist- impressionist the mad-mad artisan kneading frantic distortions horrors marbled with slivers of bliss fun house deceptions a lavender and piss checkered mix good memories are nothing but escape on a leaky life raft bad memories are dorsal fins stripping the last fleck of light from waves of black but nothing really matters but the present that cold kelp tide that grips the chest until its hammered back into a relief of memory
