there are fragments lingering of my past bits and dregs the wreckage the remains of what was once the ruins junk debris rubbish of a life lived . . . all the shattered pieces the scars the ashes the pain the tears the grief and scraps of happiness hard to grasp and hold the path has been uphill, and curved but the past is the past and today, is today
